Unfortunately, InterTrax2 isn't cheap yet (InterSense may get it there one of these days, but keep in mind, it's pretty high performance (better than InterTrax 30)). However, depending on the requirements you have, such as the range or accuracy of the tracker, and how good a tinkerer you are, maybe you could rip apart and modify a PowerGlove to do head tracking.

Here's another idea, and one that could make you some money... A few companies offer software that can take input from a camera and recognize a specific pattern, like that printed on a piece of paper. The software can judge the distance and orientation of the pattern. One example of such software is the new functionality in EAI/Sense8's World Toolkit. This could be a means of doing some low cost head tracking, with either the pattern (or several) or the camera (or several) mounted to the head. I think that some smart person could make some real money off that.

We have the original i-glasses tracker with new software that emulates a mouse and and clicking functionality by keeping the cursor still for a set amount of time.
Plugs directly into the serial port.

We will have other software for use with quadriplegic computer operators.

It is $175 in single quantities with software.
