Capture 2 or more people at a time?

Post by DanB »

Hi,

Can OptiTrack capture more than one or two people at a time?

If so, what is involved with this? How many cameras are needed?

Thanks

Currently, we can only capture two actors/skeletons, at a time (with a 12 or more camera setup)

Can these 2 characters be captured in Motion Builder at the same time?

Could you explain the process of capture two actors, right now we re capturing one actor and the quality is amazing.

Thanks a lot

When you are setting up the skeletons. You will place the lower back marker on the left side, and on the other skeleton the back marker will be on the right side. That is how the Arena software can tell the difference between the skeletons.
