Kaijin Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Hey I had AM a year or so back and got busy and ended up giving it up and now am considering coming back to it. My question does anyone know about any decent and affordable motion capture suits that are compatible with AM as well as maybe some tutorials for it. Thank you all for your time and I am sorry if this has already been posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luuk Steitner Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 If you're looking for full-body motion capture, OptiTrack is probably the most affordable solution ($5000):www.naturalpoint.com/optitrack In case you like to work with facial motion capture you can take a look at my software, Zign Track and A:M Track: www.zigncreations.com/zigntrack.html It is affordable, but it doesn't do full-body motion capture (yet).

John Bigboote Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 (yet). Oh? Are you dropping a hint? How cool would THAT be...are we all going to need to paint a room in our house black? If so, I already have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, I already have one. (I shouldn't be asking this, he thinks...) Why do you have a room in your house painted black, Mr. BigBOOte?

Doesn't everyone have a black room in their house with all the windows blacked out and a 2 x 6 x 2 foot box in the center with dirt from your homeland lining the bottom of it?

If so, I already have one. Well, I am making plans for future versions with much more possibilities. I'm not sure when Zign Track will be capable of full-body mocap, but I'm hoping to get there... So, don't start painting all your rooms black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for AM track you don't need any sensors or anything? Just a video file of the face from the front and them talking? Also what kind of video file does it have to be?

DO they have to be some kind of special sticker? Sorry for sounding dumb I just have never worked with motion capture before especially one like this.

If you can't find small ones, you can cut larger onces into small pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
