Digital Driver Analysis Project
Drivers can't be asked to do dangerous maneuvers while driving, this project allows us to apply our posture analysis algorithm to these digital driver avatars which we can animate. Digital Driver Analysis Project
4-Dimensional Scanning Dome
We can scan larger objects to and create a 3-D model, it is also possible to record motion capture. However, most modern motion capture technology requires specialized suits. The Studio 360 lets us perform motion capture without a specialized suit, just a contrasting color. 4-Dimensional Scanning Dome
