What are the three goals of motion capture system?
The three goals of motion capture are: Sensing the motion. Processing the sensor data. Storing the processed data.
What are the system components of motion capture?
Figure 3.1 shows how motion capture may be divided into three main parts: (1) sensing the motion, (2) processing the sensor data, and (3) storing the processed data. Together, parts 1 and 2 are referred to as motion tracking.
What is a motion capture system?
Motion capture (mocap) is the process of recording the movement of objects or people. The technology originated in the life science market for gait analysis but is now used widely by VFX studios, sports therapists, neuroscientists, and for validation and control of computer vision and robotics.
Why is motion capture important?
Motion capture offers a cost-effective way to record the realistic movement of computer-generated characters, props, and scenes for use in film and game special effects. In contrast to animating using keyframes, motion capture provides a more cinematic look because the actor's physical movements are captured.
