Motive 1.0.2 Key Features

• Fix for 4+ marker rigid body orientation flickering around 180 degree Euler angles when precision orientation was enabled.
• Fix for issue when playing back trajectorized data. If a rigid body became untracked it would pop to a stale solution from live mode.
• Fix for issue where rigid body solutions were streamed before they were calculated. This caused additional latency and a potential race condition that may have resulted in skipped frames or duplicate frames.
• Fix for when deleting a rigid body could delete the wrong one.
• Fix to correct LLDP/PoE+ detection on Cisco switches.
• Fix for camera and camera group properties reverting to defaults when Reconstruction properties were edited.
• Added ability to select 'muti-threaded' or 'single thread' camera calibration to help work-around a likely concurrency issue experienced by some users.

Motive 1.0.1 Key Features

• Fixed crash issues when editing rigid body properties in the Rigid Body pane.
• Fixed Motive API call to sample reconstructed markers.
• Fixed a spurious "Out of Memory" error that occured after calibration in some cases.
• Fixed an issue when using the Fix Swap tool which put the Timeline in a locked and zoomed state.

Hi Seth,

I have tryed Motive:Tracker with one camera for doing some Vector reconstraction or Projection reconstration, but couldnt do this. It doesn't display any reconstracted markers for camera. Then I was thinking to do some calibration with one camera and Motive crashed.

Also another question, there is Motive API. Is it possible to add some, for instance, trackable module or camera module and use it in Motive UI application ?

Hello
I have a question about "Support for finger tracking and new marker sets when using Motive:Body", it work on S250e cameras?

Hi Horn,
The finger tracking support is for Flex 13 and higher resolution cameras. Only the Flex 13, Prime 17W and Prime 41 cameras support the finger solution.

Thank you,
