I just read the logitech forum and it seems like the logitech gaming software is not compatible with the brio. My Brio works fine and there is another forum member that just solved his problem yesterday. (He updated his usb driver) Just to let you know I have absolutely no problem with mine. I am getting 90 fps without a hitch. I had a little problem to get more than 15 fps at night and solved it today placing an old diffuse lamp light in front of the Brio (In my back) and I now have 90fps even at night with no exterior lights.

Before you return the Brio, you ought to try using the Logitech Gaming Software (a separate download) to turn off low light compensation, which is a reason for many they can't track higher. That and making sure you've got optimization turned on in the FW plugin ought to insure you easily get to 60fps, if not higher. I love my 922x, which is a solidly built camera and gets me 60fps with very poor room lighting. But, again, I need to turn off low-light compensation, and run optimized in FW. But it does appear that higher tracking rates won't help much anyway, so it's more cost effective than the Brio.

The Logitech BRIO Ultra is a dog. I can't get it to track at more than 40 FPS; the options software from Logitech doesn't recognize that it's connected. I'm returning the device and ordering the 922x, which is less than half the price. I'll see whether that helps. Any suggestions on alternate cameras would be valuable because Logitech is NOT a high quality company, based on the reviews it gets. The BRIO in particular is getting slammed.

Would love to know how it works. What camera did you get it for? I see they don't have it for the GoPro Session 5, which is what I would like to use. -S Bought them for our Samsung Galaxy S6 phones. We also have our old Motorola Razr Maxx HD cell phones but figured these would have better frame rates (but never really checked). And I mainly wanted them to help me design and build one if need be. schemer

sterlingy (9/28/2017) I'm trying to figure out which is the BEST camera to get, regardless of price? I assume the BRIO is the better of the webcams that are suggested, but would a 4K GoPro be better?
Has anyone found a relatively inexpensive way to make or buy a headcam?
Ordered a couple of these but haven't received them yet: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Head-Strap-Phone-Holder-Motorcycle-Biking-Racing-Arm-Mount-for-Gopro-Phone-/302053450724?var=&hash=item4653c9e3e4:m:mrITK-tGmTq8zD-wZk6XTBw

Yeah, I tried a couple of cameras with frame rates as high as 120fps, and saw no improvement over 60fps (but 60fps IS the way iClone runs, so it makes sense that it's the most optimized for it). As Brian from FW said, the only real advantage of higher rates is it might not lose the tracking, but I've had no problems along this line at 60fps unless I move my head too far.

It would seem higher than necessary frame rates and res would only slow performance or accuracy, just an opinion I've only used several cams.

Well, that is some interesting feedback. I've seen people complain about the BRIO, but maybe they just don't have it set up properly. Light is clearly something that needs to be considered for this. Has anyone found a cheap LED lighting panel that they recommend? -S

I have no problem tracking at 90 fps with the Brio, but I have many windows in my studio. At night , it is a different scenario and I would need to add an overhead diffuse light. I ask Brian from Faceware Technology , a question about tracking in 90 fps, here is my question and his answer in case it might help others. Hello Brian,
Just a quick question. At the moment, with the Logitech Brio, I can run Faceware realtime for Iclone at either 60 or 90 fps. Now we both know that Iclone record only at 60 fps. Since I have both options and Iclone seems to be playing the captured motion at the right speed with both fps options, Should I run Faceware realtime for Iclone in 90 fps or 60 fps to have the best capture motion? I have a M.2 SSD and a fast computer. I have the feeling that when choosing 90 fps, the faster lips are handled better but I am just wondering what happen between both softwares when converting from 90 fps to 60 fps. This info would be valuable to me and other Iclone users. If your scene in iClone is running at 60fps, you shouldn't see an appreciable difference in the end results on the animation side between using 60 and 90 in Realtime for iClone. You are correct, however, that using a higher frame rate for the tracking can help with the accuracy and would help to prevent the tracking from falling off, as the increased frame rate results in less motion blur and more updates of the tracking data.
