Abstract:
A marker tracking system configured to detect light patterns (e.g., infrared light patterns) generated by one or more markers is described. A given marker is configured with a code which identifies the marker in a motion tracking camera field of view. Motion tracking camera(s) record the emitted infrared light and are configured to directly, or in conjunction with an associated computing device, computationally distinguish a given marker with high accuracy and efficiently.

Claim (Index 1):
A system comprising:\n a processing system comprising at least one processing device; a motion tracking camera, wherein the motion tracking camera detects infrared light; a marker, the marker configured to emit a binary pattern of infrared light pulses; non-transitory media that stores instructions readable by the processing system, that when executed by the processing system, cause the system to:\n identify, within a given image, a cluster of adjacent pixels corresponding to infrared light emitted from the marker; \n determine a count of how many saturated pixels are within a given identified cluster of adjacent pixels of the given image; \n determine a highest count of saturated pixels from respective counts of saturated pixels of respective given identified clusters of respective given images in a plurality of images; \n calculate a radius for a circular perimeter by at least multiplying the highest count of saturated pixels by a first factor; \n identify a first area, bounded by the circular perimeter, of a first image, of the plurality of images, encompassing a highest number of infrared light pixels within a cluster of adjacent pixels; \n for pixels within the first area, identify a first set of pixels having a highest intensity as compared to other sets of pixels in the first area, wherein the first set of pixels has a count equal to the highest count of saturated pixels; \n excluding the first set of pixels, determine a sum of infrared light intensities of the first area; \n determine respective sum of infrared light intensities for respective areas in the remaining one or more images of the plurality of images; and \n using the determined respective sum of infrared light intensities of the respective areas of respective images of the plurality of images,\n assign a binary value to the plurality of images.
