1. What is Motion Capture?
Motion Capture systems track the 3D position of anything that moves. A combination of high speed cameras and computers measures the motion of highly reflective markers attached to the subject. The Entertainment Industry uses motion capture extensively for movies and video games. Medical rehabilitation, gait analysis research, 3D immersive training, and sports performance enhancement all benefit from the information generated during motion capture. The Motion Reality system was recently used to create all the animations for the movie trilogy Lord of the Rings and the recent feature film Polar Express.
