Here is artanim’s new motion capture demo reel. Discover our facilities and motion capture systems!

Taekwondo and tango movements were captured using our 24 cameras Vicon system. Rock climbing and mountain bike were tracked with our Xsens MVN suit.

Special thanks to Valerie, Sina, Etienne and Houmi for their participation.

Body motion captureThe artanim foundation is pleased to invite you to their open day:

Saturday 24th of September 2011 from 10am to 5pm

The artanim foundation is dedicated to the development and promotion of motion capture. We conduct research projects in computer animation and biomedicine, educational activities and cultural activities such as the creation of audiovisual projects and events. The foundation is supported by the Hans Wilsdorf Foundation.

We will present our different motion capture systems:

  • Vicon: 24 MXT40S cameras, 110m2 studio
  • Xsens: MVN suit allowing outdoor capture session

To help us cater for the correct number of visitors, we would be grateful if you could contact us to let us know your company name and number of people in your party.

Our team looks forward to meeting you and will be pleased to answer any of your questions!

Vicon camera boxesLast week, Prophysics came to our studio in order to install our Vicon system: 3 MX Giganets, 24 MXT40S cameras!

The first day was dedicated to build the system that came packed into several boxes (see photo on the left). 16 cameras were first attached to the two flexible grids and 8 others were mounted on tripods.

The next day, the Prophysics’s technicians carefully calibrated each camera to obtain the biggest motion capture volume as possible while maintaining high tracking accuracy (see photo below). We finally tested the system intensively with different sizes of markers to ensure its proper setup, and especially to make sure we can precisely capture the smallest eyebrow movements, as well as incredible fast and large range of motion!
