Comparing Inertial and Optical Mocap Technologies for Synthesis Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 systems. Both systems are found to have their strengths and weaknesses, which we will present and discuss.

From Traditional to Interdisciplinary Approaches for Inertial Body Motion Capture
Inertial motion capture (mocap) is a widespread technology for capturing human motion outside the lab, e.g. for applications in sports, ergonomics, rehabilitation and personal fitness. Even though mature systems are commercially available, inertial mocap is still a subject of research due to a number of limitations: besides measurement errors and sparsity, also simplified body models and calibr...
متن کاملLead Selenide Nanomaterials: Hydrothermal Synthesis, Characterization, Optical Properties and DFT Calculations
Well-defined crystalline PbSe nanocubes and nanospheres have been synthesized through a simple hydrothermal method by using Pb2+- EDTA and Pb2+- oleylamine complexes at 180°C for different reaction times. Composition and morphology of the samples have been characterized by means of XRD and SEM. Gradual release process of Pb2+ from Pb2+-EDTA and Pb2+-oleylamine complexes can adjust the growth ra...
متن کاملA Relational Approach to Content-based Analysis of Motion Capture Data
Motion capture or mocap systems allow for tracking and recording of human motions at high spatial and temporal resolutions. The resulting 3D mocap data is used for motion analysis in fields such as sports sciences, biomechanics, or computer vision, and in particular for motion synthesis in data-driven computer animation. In view of a rapidly growing corpus of motion data, automatic retrieval, a...
متن کاملA Highly Miniaturized, Wireless Inertial Measurement Unit for Characterizing the Dynamics of Pitched Baseballs and Softballs
Baseball and softball pitch types are distinguished by the path and speed of the ball which, in turn, are determined by the angular velocity of the ball and the velocity of the ball center at the instant of release from the pitcher’s hand. While radar guns and video-based motion capture (mocap) resolve ball speed, they provide little information about how the angular velocity of the ball and th...
متن کاملColloidal synthesis of germanium nanocrystals
In this study, colloidal germanium nanocrystals were synthesized by a simple and novel method, and their optical properties were also studied. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a surface modifier was used to control the optical properties of colloidal Ge nanocrystals. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis was performed to identify the various functional groups present in the sample. ...
