increase marker visibility

Post by nillwatson532 »

Hi all,

I am using a V120 3D camera for capturing trajectories of a roller skater on a treadmill. I defined 5 rigid bodies: a coordinate system, 2 roller skates and 2 poles, which contain 3-4 markers. Unfortunately the rigid bodies keep on vanishing during recording. Do you have any suggestions how to improve the recording?

All the markers are faced towards the camera and should be in the visible area of the camera.
The place where the recordings are taken is quite bright.
I used half sphere markers.
The skates have an extra cross shaped construction mounted on the back side for attachment of the markers.

Thank you for helping and best regards,
