SIGGRAPH - Article - Content - Trampoline - Media

Who said that you can't bring an Olympic-sized trampoline to a trade show floor, and track professional acrobats as they launch up to 30 feet in the air? Oh, and who said it's impossible to track the constantly stretching and deforming string bed of the trampoline itself? OptiTrack proved them both wrong at SIGGRAPH 2022 in Vancouver, British Columbia.

SIGGRAPH - Article - Content - Jessica and Sara - Media
Jessica Anderson-Gwin and Sara VonGillern, reprising their roles from SIGGRAPH 2019 and GDC 2022. This time off the Lyra, but still synchronizing at an elite level to 90's hip hop.
SIGGRAPH - Article - Content - First Show - Media
This was the first OptiTrack show where we featured LED video walls from our sister company Planar Systems. It doesn't photograph well, but it sure looked good in person and was invaluable in showing off what our tracking systems are capable of.
SIGGRAPH - Article - Content - Metal Cube - Media
Somehow finding the stamina after 2+ days of strenuous trampolining, Cameron showcased one of his other incredible talents with a choreographed routine using a huge flexible metal cube.
SIGGRAPH - Article - Content - Talent - Media
We were blown away by the grit and pure, awe-inspiring talent of local-to-Vancouver circus instructor Cameron and circus student Ronan, and Los Angeles based aerialists Jessica and Sara along with DJ Jeli.
SIGGRAPH - Article - Content - Celebrate - Media

There was so much to celebrate after this show–it was easily the most largest booth we've ever built, filled with the most ambitious technical showcase we've ever conceived. That being said, it was only possible due to our amazing talent, and the OptiTrack staff pictured here (and to many others around the world). We love our jobs, and this motion capture community. See you next year!
