©2010, The Ohio State University Electromechanical suits Linked structures Potentiometers determine rotation of each link No occlusion No magnetic or electrical interference Large capture range, portable No global translation Restricted movement Fixed configuration of sensors Low sampling rate Inaccurate joints

©2010, The Ohio State University Optical fiber system Fiber-optic sensor Bend and twist sensors measure transmitted light No occlusion Multiple subjects Portable Adjustment to individual proportions is limited Less accurate data

©2010, The Ohio State University Electromagnetic systems Electromagnetic sensors placed on joints of moving object Measures orientation and position of sensor relative to electromagnetic field generated by transmitter No occlusion, multiple subjects Electromagnetic interference, small volume

©2010, The Ohio State University Acoustic system Set of microphones receive sound wave Other sounds in frequency range can disrupt capture Accuracy not as high as other systems

©2010, The Ohio State University Strobing LED marker system Fewer Occlusion Problems Limited volume

Video-based Motion Analysis Research Areas o Tracking o 3D surface reconstruction (surface scanning) o 3D movement reconstruction (video-based motion capture) o Recognition Challenges: o Complex environment variability o Body segmentation o Occlusion

©2010, The Ohio State University 3D Reconstruction Single camera o Model assumptions required Multiple cameras o Require at least 2 cameras, unique with 3 o Camera calibration Motion capture with markers o Use retroreflective markers to simplify video information

©2010, The Ohio State University Optical Mocap Process Calibration o Specifying how each camera is related to the others in reference to origin Tracking o Tracking of points…acceleration and identification problems Data o 3D positional…needs to be converted to rotational data

©2010, The Ohio State University Problems Related to Marker Occlusion

©2010, The Ohio State University Skeletal Fit (remapping mocap data to a character model) How to make markers move a skeleton o Photo reference of performer o CG model o Motion Builder o Vicon Blade o Other methods Problems with detecting joint centers… Organization of joint hierarchies

©2010, The Ohio State University Planning Character/Prop setup o Target skeleton/character topology o Ready stance considerations Marker setup o Heavy marker redundancy o Three markers per segment o Place markers close to bone

©2009, The Ohio State University Planning Shot list o Number of characters involved in performance o Performance space dimensions o Interactions in shot o Shots to be blended or looped o Length of shots o Size and location of props o Gross proportional differences for retargeting

©2009, The Ohio State University Planning Technical Issues o Output format o File naming conventions o Frames per second o Target software platform o Database management
