Motion Capture Monday

This Monday we were introduced to the motion capture studio provided to our class. It is the most advanced of its kind in the southern hemisphere.



It consists of 24 cameras arranged around the studio, which picks up the reflections of a large amount of bright markers placed on the suit of the "object". The signals can then be translated and placed in a 3d world, a game, for example.



Midway uses the studio for their new WWII game, Hour of Victory, and that is of course very cool :)
