Motion Capture and Visualization Laboratory
Motion Capture and Visualization Laboratory
Our research focuses on Motion Capturing (for example gait-analysis, excergaming, biomechanical analysis, miniature inertial sensors, analyse and perfect athletes movements, and fish biomass-estimation).
The laboratory is a meeting place for R&D, learning and innovation.
Motion Capture System
Motion capturing systems are used to record industrial, human or animal motion. Several technologies can achieve this. Our self developed system is optical based and uses cameras to compute the 3D position of a set of markers.
Advanced calibration and tracking algorithms ensures high precision 3D-measurements which enables analysing fine details in human motor control or high accuracy biomass estimation of fish.
All movements are visualized in real-time. The 3D positions can be used in various kinds of systems (physioterapists, sports, game industry, surveillance, simulators++).
We currently focus on two areas
- Welfare technology
- Aquaculture
Equipment overview
Our lab is equipped with top notch visalisation gear. For example:
- Qualisys motion capture cameras
- FLIR machine vision cameras
- Omnidirectional treadmill
- VR treadmill
- Eye tracking
- EEG technology
Publications
We aim to disseminate our research results to the scientific community through the scientific publications of our research area, and to involve students in our ongoing research activities.
