چکیده
The paper presents research about implementing a full body inertial motion capture system, the Xsens MVN suit, for musical interaction. Three different approaches for streaming real time and prerecorded motion capture data with Open Sound Control have been implemented. Furthermore, we present technical performance details and our experience with the motion capture system in realistic practice.

Xsens MVN: Full 6DOF Human Motion Tracking Using Miniature Inertial Sensors
The Xsens MVN motion capture suit is an easy-touse, cost efficient system for full-body human motion capture. MVN is based on unique, state-of-the-art miniature inertial sensors, biomechanical models and sensor fusion algorithms. MVN does not need external cameras, emitters or markers. It can thus be used outdoors as well as indoors, there are no restrictions for lighting, it does not suffer fr...
متن کاملDeveloping the Dance Jockey System for Musical Interaction with the Xsens MVN Suit
In this paper we present the Dance Jockey System, a system developed for using a full body inertial motion capture suit (Xsens MVN) in music/dance performances. We present different strategies for extracting relevant postures and actions from the continuous data, and how these postures and actions can be used to control sonic and musical features. The system has been used in several public perf...
متن کاملTowards Sensing Behavior Using the Kinect
A method is proposed to validate Microsoft’s Kinect as a device and, hence, to enable low fidelity, unobtrusive, robust sensing of behavior. The Xsens MVN suit is proposed as the measurements’ ground truth. An overarching framework is introduced that facilitates a mapping of both devices upon each other. This framework includes a complete processing pipeline for both the Xsens and the Kinect da...
متن کاملComparing Inertial and Optical Mocap Technologies for Synthesis Control
This paper compares the use of two different technologies for controlling sound synthesis in real time: the infrared marker-based motion capture system OptiTrack and Xsens MVN, an inertial sensor-based motion capture suit. We present various quantitative comparisons between the data from the two systems and results from an experiment where a musician performed simple musical tasks with the two ...
متن کاملAccuracy of Base of Support Using an Inertial Sensor Based Motion Capture System
The potential of miniature inertial sensors for human balance and gait analysis appears promising. Base of support (BOS), together with its interaction with center of mass, is a critical indicator in above mentioned research fields. This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of Xsens MVN BIOMECH, a commercial widely used inertial sensor-based motion capture system, for measuring static BOS and ex...
