Tracks a user-selected point via webcam (OpenCV CSRT tracker) and streams x_pos / y_pos pixel coordinates as live channels into the acquisition pipeline. Falls back to a Lissajous figure simulation when opencv-python is not installed, so the plugin works immediately without hardware. - tracker.py: background thread, real camera + sim modes, thread-safe API - device.py: BaseDevice reading x/y from tracker, wires into engine - filter.py: custom pixel_to_mm filter (registered in FILTER_CLASSES) - window.py: floating tool window, live feed, click-to-track ROI selection - plugin.py: LabPlugin wiring all pieces together, toolbar button, settings widget, profile save/restore Also: PluginAction.button_ref_callback lets plugins store a ref to their toolbar button so they can uncheck it when their window closes. opencv-python install note added to requirements.txt.

Plugins live in plugins/<name>/ with a manifest.json and a LabPlugin subclass. Enabled/disabled in Settings > Plugins tab; state persists in plugins/enabled.json and in .labdaq profiles (loading a profile enables/disables plugins to match). Plugins can contribute toolbar buttons, BaseDevice instances (auto-wired into acquisition pipeline), custom signal filter classes, a settings widget, and profile state via get_save_state/apply_save_state. Load errors now report the exact failing stage (file not found, class missing, on_load crash). Includes example plugin skeleton and docs/plugin-development.md.
