Directional reconstruction provides a unique way to positively identify signal interactions induced by dark matter particles, owing to the motion of the Earth through the galactic dark matter halo. Directional information can additionally serve as a powerful discriminant against neutron (and neutrino-induced) backgrounds that have the same final-state signature as a signal interaction. The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber (DMTPC) collaboration uses gas-based TPC technology, with both optical and charge readout, to measure the directional anisotropy of nuclear recoils induced by particles traversing the detector volume. Here, we present preliminary results from recent calibration runs of the DMTPC m3 detector in a surface laboratory, as well as a study of its projected directional sensitivity.
