I wouldn't be surprised if TIR has faster and smoother responses than FT (I hope so), however FT gives you a smoothing slider, which allows you to set your preferred compromise between instant response and smooth response.

I know what you mean, it is difficult to tell without a live shot of the guy's head. Maybe he's just not using quick and precise head movements in this demo, which is often a symptom of input lag which is why I brought it up.
People perceive input lag differently, like frame rates. I see lots of folks who can't consciously tell the difference between 25fps and 60fps but it shows on how slow they tend to react since it takes that extra split second to get their bearings after spinning around.
Anyway, not having used FT I wouldn't judge it's performance, I just question certain aspects of performance and precision since it lacks the dedicated hardware advantage of TIR. It may be as some say that the extra cpu load is not significant enough to make enough difference to justify the cost of a TIR.
I've never really found much use for a webcam but I may pick one up sometime to try out FT for myself and compare.
