OptiTrack for Movement Sciences
OptiTrack systems offer the world’s leading blend of measurement accuracy and simple, easy-to-use workflows which provide researchers and biomechanists with ideal 3D tracking data for their studies.
Native, plug-and-play support for all major digital force plates, EMGs, and analog devices gives researchers the tools they need most for display and analysis in Visual3D, The MotionMonitor, MATLAB, and other third party biomechanics packages.
Higher density markersets, even in large volumes.
Higher density markersets, even in large volumes.
OptiTrack’s world leading range to marker, which is typically 2× of other optical motion capture systems, means that higher density marker sets can be measured alongside traditional full-body tracking. In fact, OptiTrack delivered the world’s largest, high marker density measurement system where over 100 markers—3 mm in size—are tracked in less than a cubic foot over a tracking area of 1000 sq ft.
Force Plate Support
Force Plate Support
OptiTrack offers native plug-and-play support for all leading force plate manufacturers. When used with OptiTrack cameras and an eSync 2, Motive’s plug-and-play force plate support integrates all force plates and precisely synchronizes them with the kinematic data, as well as offering real-time streaming, capture, and export of all ground reaction force components. Using OptiTrack’s CS-400 calibration square users can now position force plates into the tracking volume through the one-click positioning feature. Best of all, this means no need to enter the calibration matrices or multiple analog cables.
DAQ support for EMGs and other analog devices.
DAQ support for EMGs and other analog devices.
Motive’s native support for National Instruments USB DAQ devices enables motion capture data and analog data to be synchronized within +/-5 µs per camera exposure, with support for input frequencies up to 50 kHz via the eSync 2. This allows for acquisition from any general analog device, including triggers, EMGs, force places, accelerometers, and force transducers.
Deep Toolsets for the Expert User
Deep Toolsets for the Expert User
For the expert user with highly specialized technical requirements, OptiTrack’s open SDK enables development of customized workflows, system operation and data analysis. OptiTrack even offers a headless version with which other software can manage and operate the tracking system via your own wrapper. Well documented workflows and sample codes make custom integrations fast and easy.
