Patent ID: 8780119

Claim:
A method of motion capturing markers coupled to at least one motion capture object, comprising: generating a motion capture beat by capturing markers coupled to at least one motion capture object using motion capture cameras, wherein the motion capture beat includes digital image data captured from a motion capture session; generating a plurality of Configurations, each Configuration including partitioning parameters and reconstruction parameters, wherein the reconstruction parameters indicate marker types including valid minimum and maximum sizes and acceptable minimum and maximum movement rates of the markers, and define a reconstruction processing which generates point data by fusing the digital image data from the motion capture cameras based on the marker types, and wherein each Configuration comprises a collection of processing steps tailored for a particular type of the reconstruction processing; partitioning the motion capture beat by subdividing the beat into beat partitions using said partitioning parameters, each beat partition comprising a duration that is efficient with respect to operational limitations of a reconstruction module; reconstructing said beat partitions using the reconstruction module, wherein each beat partition is reconstructed using said reconstruction parameters and corresponding motion capture camera calibration information to generate the point data representing a marker; and merging said point data to form at least one master point file.
