Context
OUR TAKE Motion capture technology is widely used in many fields, in film and television animation, game field can provide users with more natural and intuitive interactive experience. At the same time, it greatly improves the production efficiency, reduces the cost, and makes the animation effect more vivid and real. In the era of diversified leisure and entertainment, motion capture technology is a unique and effective way to promote the development of the industry. In addition, in the field of medical treatment and rehabilitation, sports training and biomechanical research, motion capture technology plays an important role. — Iydia Ding, BTW reporter Motion capture refers to the technique of recording and processing the movement of a person or other object,combining image tracing techniques and new computer technology, making it possible to use live, continuous footage as the basis for animation without having to go through the drawing process. In recent years, motion capture has begun to make a splash in the film and television animation, and gaming industries. The real breakthrough came when “ the Lord of the Rings Trilogy ” completely created the character of “ Gollum ” through motion capture, revolutionising the way people viewed the technology.

Analysis
In addition to applications in film and television animation and games, motion capture technology is also used in virtual reality, human-machine effects, rehabilitation medicine, ship posture detection medical and rehabilitation, sports training and biomechanical research, etc., and with the continuous development of science and technology, there must be more expandable development direction in the future. “If we do to do 200 minutes of animation with motion capture, we may only need about 2-3 days of recording, probably less than 1 month, to achieve the same, or even more realistic, effect as if the animator had made the motion manually.” Basic concepts of motion capture Motion capture originated from rotoscoping , which was used in Disney’s early 2D animated film “ Snow White ” and the game “ Prince of Persia “. Today’s motion capture refers more to wearable motion capture technologies, such as optical motion capture and inertial motion capture. Motion capture specialists install various sensors on actors. These track and record their movements so that they can be mapped in real time as a virtual “skeleton” on a computer screen.
Key Points
- Motion capture refers to the technique of recording and processing the movement of a person or other object,
- Motion capture technology is used in a large number of great animated films such as Avatar, The Avengers, and The Lord of the Rings.
