Tracking of a see-through head-mounted display is a necessary precondition for proper overlay of virtual data and real scenes within the display. In our contribution, the intention and technique for Intraoperative Presentation will be presented. Focus will be the tracking of the display device. We will illustrate and compare three different optical tracking approaches and the results achieved by using them.
