  1. Motion Capture:History, Approaches, Applications, and Future trends By: Ryan Frost MSIM 742 : Visualization II Old Dominion University

  2. Introduction Motion capture is the recording of human body movement (or other movement) for immediate or delayed analysis and playback Motion capture refers to the technique of recording the actions of human actors, and using that information to animate digital character models in 3D animation

  3. History • Interest in studying motion dates back to 1400’s • 1400’s: Leonardo da Vinci • 1500’s: Galileo • 1600’s: Borelli • Newton, Bernoulli, Euler, Pioseuille, and Young • 1900’s:Muybridge, Marey

  4. Applications of Motion Capture • Entertainment (Movies, Games) • Medical Field • Sports Analysis and Enhancement • Industrial Field • Increase process efficiency, product design, ergonomics evaluation • Research and Defense

  5. Approaches to Motion Capture • Marker Based • Goniometers • Magnetic • Inertial • Opitcal

  6. Magnetic

  7. Inertial

  8. Optical

  9. MIT’s Pfinder Markerless Approach • 2D Blob Model http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVwKPnIErrA

  10. Stanford Markerless Motion Capture Project • 3D voxel reconstruction from silhouettes http://www.stanford.edu/~stefanoc/Markerless/Markerless.html

  11. Human Shape and Pose from Images Using SCAPE • SCAPE Models Template Body Pose Body Shape

  12. Human Shape and Pose from Images Using SCAPE Input Images overlaid with estimated body model Overlap (yellow) between silhouette (red) and estimated model (blue) Recovered model from each camera view

  13. Future Trends of Motion Capture • Markerless Motion Capture • In general – • Increased speed • Increased capture area • Decreased cost • Multiple character motion capture
