Comparison of intrusive and non-intrusive motion capture technologies for upper body kinematic analysis.
The adaptability of machine vision solutions for motion capture has generated an interest in determining whether markerless capture methods can achieve a level of accuracy particularly similar to capture techniques with passive or active markers, being an essential factor in the identification and treatment of motor weaknesses in physiotherapeutic fields. In this sense, the aim of this work is to perform a comparison of two motion capture techniques: intrusive and non-intrusive, using the 3D tracking systems OptiTrack and MediaPipe to determine the performance of markerless pose estimation in obtaining the ranges of motion of the upper body of a person.
Virtuality is an innovative process seen in recent years. This process allows transforming scenarios to a virtual environment for simulations, practices, or tests so that all results can be studied. In turn, these environments can be supported by new tools and methodologies that increase the analysis capabilities, such as motion capture to generate animations, tracking of robotic equipment and the study of human movement, which benefits the development of systems with these objectives. A prototype of a nonintrusive virtual trainer capable of capturing motion and determining the correct execution of exercise routines is presented, using a virtual environment developed in the Unity video game engine. The system employs a SHDR webcam for real-time capture of the movement performed by the user, which is processed to track the pose and joints using Machine Learning through the MediaPipe library. This article explains the construction of the prototype and presents the results of the project.
