Motion Capture 2

This is what the markers and sensors look like on the body...


The weird box with an LED on top emits a specific infrared pulse rate that the cameras recognize as a specific point in space.  We have 4 of these markers... we could go up to 8.

The LED is seen by the cameras installed on the light grid...



The other boxes on the limbs are more easily seen in the next picture...


Once connected to a 9v battery the little box can tell you in what direction the body part is facing in space...

The whole comes together in a computer that then sends the information to another computer to create the animation...


The white wires are coming from the cameras...
