Ground plane using active LEDs

Post by JeDi »

Hi,

We are using OptiTrack cameras in an active marker setup (using V120:SLIM cameras) and we also changed the calibration tools (wand and ground plane) to use IR LEDs.

In our current lab setup, we use velcro to put LEDs on the ground plane, at the position of the screw holes. This of course is not a perfect solution: there are slight offsets to the actual position the markers should be.

Is this a problem? If the coordinate system is only rotated using the ground plane, I don't think this would have any impact. Or is the coordinate system transformed in another way?

Hi JeDi,

This is not a problem. You will not have any issues designing your own calibration square.
