NXOSC Reborn: reconstructing Waves Nx Head Tracker BLE output

NXOSC Reborn reconstructs the Waves Nx Head Tracker's BLE communication from analysis of Nxosc and captures from a physical tracker. Its Python app decodes orientation packets and sends configurable OSC messages to spatial-audio software, with profiles, smoothing and adjustable output rate.
