Thanks, that corrected my issue. However this only works for a stationary camera, but my project involves the use of a HMD mounted camerea and this causes the positions and angles to change as the camera moves. How should I go about solving this problem. I have posted the most recent coding below:

import viz
import vizact
import vizshape
viz.go()

ar = viz.add('artoolkit.dle')

camera = ar.addWebCamera()
board = camera.addMatrixMarker(0,width=1000)
camera.setGlobalMarker(board)



box = camera.addMatrixMarker(1,width=1000)

arm = camera.addMatrixMarker(2,width=1000)

def showData():
for number in range(5):
box_pos = box.getPosition(viz.ABS_GLOBAL)
for pos in box_pos:
if round(box_pos [0]) == -3.0 and round(box_pos[1]) == 5.0 and round(box_pos[2]) == 5.0:
print box_pos, 'great job'

else:
print box_pos



vizact.ontimer(2,showData)
