3D Motion Capture Sculptures
29-Jul-08
to 19-Aug-08
A present for my former professors Erik and Marty Demaine, this project is a simple and low-cost 3D motion tracker. I wrote a Processing application that displays and analyzes the video feeds of two webcams. The two cameras are mounted at ninety degrees to each other on an L shaped rig. By finding the position of light as seen by both cameras and constructing a 3D point. The path of that point is recorded over time, and that path is turned into 3D geometry using Rhinoscript. That model can then be printed by any standard 3D printer. Coding in Processing and RhinoScript.
