Wireless inertial sensing-based full-body human kinematic measurement system

动作捕捉，简称“动作捕捉”，指的是记录一个或多个人或物体的动作的过程。它已经成为许多行业的基本技术，包括娱乐(游戏和电影制作)、运动科学(人的因素和动力学)、虚拟现实(培训和模拟)以及健康(诊断和康复)。例如，在游戏和电影制作中，它被用来记录人类演员或运动员的动作，并使用这些信息在3D计算机动画中制作数字角色模型的动画。然而，如果MOCAP设备真的能够变得可穿戴和可移动，它可以释放大量信息，这些信息可能会对我们涉及日常生活的研究产生实质性影响。我们的身体以及我们的行为可以产生丰富的数据，供可穿戴传感器(如微型惯性传感器)收集和分析。

Motion capture, or "MoCap" for short, refers to the process of recording movements of one or more persons or objects. It has served as an essential technology to many industries, including entertainment (gaming and filmmaking), movement science (human factors and kinetics), virtual reality (training and simulations), and health (diagnostics and rehabilitation). In gaming and filmmaking, for example, it is used to record actions of human actors or athletes, and using that information to animate digital character models in 3D computer animation. However, if MoCap devices can truly become wearable and ambulatory, it can liberate a wealth of information that could have a substantial impact on our research involving everyday life. Our bodies, as well as our behaviour can generate a wealth of data for wearable sensors such miniature inertial sensors to collect and analyze.
