Re: Batch processor: Reconstruction settings?

Okay, so I pretty much implemented these. They look like the 'default' settings in my processing settings file. Now it runs about 10 times slower, but the output seems more similar to what I am getting when I do the exporting in Motive. I know this is super proprietary and probably a trade secret, b...

Re: Batch processor: Reconstruction settings?

Thanks for these. It seems that I don't check this place often enough! :)

Will try these settings, and report back.

Batch processor: Reconstruction settings?

I noticed that if I reconstruct and auto-label a take file with my code, the results are slightly different when I export it from Motive. * When all rigid bodies are fine, then everything is identical * My code tends to drop the rigid body data easier than with Motive. I am using the default setting...

Re: Setting Marker as a Pivot Point

I am not sure if you are still looking for this, but we have a manual solution: Create rigid body from markers Click on one marker While holding Shift, click on the centroid Right click (on either the marker or the highlighted centroid) - Marker (1) - Set pivot This way, the rigid body's translation...

Re: NatNet session directory creation

Update for this: Just use absolute path, with respect to the OptiTrack computer. We made the same network drive for all the computers, so the paths will be the same on all the computers.

NatNet session directory creation

I am driving Motive using NatNet in my own custom environment. My problem is that we want to create sessions with the names only. Unfortunately, when calling SetCurrentSession , the new directory gets created, but it is inside the previous directory. A temporary workaround for this is to use ../sess...

Re: [Matlab] Download entire take?

Update #2. I made a simple command line tool that allows the conversion of the .tak file to .csv. Since I am working with rigid bodies only, I disabled most exporting features, but you can adapt the code to your liking very easily. Either way, you can process the .csv file with any tool you want, an...

Re: [Matlab] Download entire take?

(answering this for future me and maybe for a handful of people interested) You can't instantly download the entire take with NatNet. The closest equivalent you can do is to use the CSVExporter class in the NMotive API (link: https://v23.wiki.optitrack.com/index.php?title=Motive_Batch_Processor ). Y...

[solved][Matlab] Download entire take?

Hi all, I am using Matlab to access OptiTrack data, just started playing with the NatNet SDK. I can see how I can stream data, which is great to access real-time positions. So the idea is, that, after connecting to the system and configuring the markers: -I name the take -I start recording -I get th...
