Re: Experiences of using OptiTrack

Oh, you are evil! ;-) Just when I'd gotten used to the idea of getting 6 cameras...! I'll leave it to you to explain to my wife why I need 12!

Re: Experiences of using OptiTrack

<r>Thanks! But I have to say that Bryan's animations were probably the most exciting samples (to me) I've seen. Maybe it's me, but I wasn't that concerned that the system could track markers on the move, I was worried that the system would be jittery on markers that are standing still--I've seen a L...

Re: Three Questions about Optitrack

Okay, thanks! Very interesting, I was wondering what would happen if they were set up in an oblong fashion. Looks great--this is very exciting!--Tim

Re: Three Questions about Optitrack

<t>Pretty cool, huh? And much cleaner than a direct import. Those files are supposed to be right out of the system. I imagine they were using 12 cameras. I'm still a little hesitant, and I'd feel better with a few more samples of more subtle movements, but maybe the only way to see if this thing rea...

Re: Three Questions about Optitrack

<t>You get a page of code when you link, but just do a "save page as" boxing.bvh--that saves it as a bvh file. Then, in Poser, bring up your stick figure character and then import the bvh file. This puts the motion on the character. The movement will appear very slow, since it was captured at 100 fr...

Re: Three Questions about Optitrack

<t>Bryan, I did have one initial question about your set up: how do you have your cameras set up--that is, how big is your circle (I'm assuming they're in a circle), how high are your cameras, and what is the effective size of your capture area? I'm going to have a hard time finding a 20' space like...

Re: Three Questions about Optitrack

<r>PS: if you guys have any other general Poser/Daz animation questions, let me know--I've been fighting this battle for years by doing Poser animation by hand, so that's why I'm so interested in Optitrack--but many of the issues would still apply even with Optitrack.<br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www...
