The eight-camera PPT motion capture system offers high-quality optical tracking over a wide range (more than 10 x 10 meters). It connects directly to the VR Toolkit (included in VR Workstations) for an ideal solution for virtual reality applications.
Using proven CCD technology and WorldViz image processing technology, the PPT family of products delivers flexible and accurate tracking solutions. Real-time technology allows users to see tracking results the instant a subject performs a motion.
The eight-camera PPT motion capture system includes:
eight optical sensors
processor computer with control software
cable connections
eight infrared targets
Advantages over the four-camera system include:
tracks eight targets at a time,
maximum coverage of tracking workspace (practically no "dead" tracking zones),
optimal elimination of line-of-sight occlusion, and
optimal robustness and precision.
Ease of Use
The intuitive graphical user interface includes a wizard for instant calibration using a digital calibration board. PPT directly connects to the VR Toolkit (included in VR Workstations). Dll for Windows, and C source library for Linux included. Simple streaming or polling via RS-232 serial port 115.2 kbs interface.
Calibration
Takes 3 minutes. All systems come with an automatic calibration board that automatically calibrates the entire system—all three axes.
