Types of Motion Capture
There are 2 types of motion capture, they are:
1. Optical Motion Capture
- Active Optical Motion Capture: These systems use markers with built-in light sources. The light is infrared which is captured by the specialized camera and offers a better accuracy in motion tracking.
- Passive Optical motion capture: Here, reflective markers are used at the object or subject. Multiple cameras capture the subject in 3 Dimensions allowing better motion tracking.
2. Inertial Motion Capture
This method does not use cameras and markers instead gyroscopes and accelerometers are attached to the subject body. They detect the movement. This method is used in outdoor scenarios where cameras are impractical.
Motion Capture in Computer Graphics
Today, we see many movies, games, animations, 2D and 3D images, and drug designing. Have you ever wondered how these things have been created and how they work? These projections replicate the same of living beings and creatures. This could done with Computer Graphics.
