Practical Motion Capture in Everyday Surroundings

THIS IS NOT A COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE PRODUCT
This self-contained motion capture suit uses ultrasound to allow the recording of motions in any setting, as opposed to traditional motion capture systems that are confined to a studio. Published in SIGGRAPH 2007.

the render is taller than the actual guy, and I think the program is compensating by making the render stoop a bit to account for the height difference.

now make it control a virtual video game character, and give the user a head-mounted display to view the game

The skiing looks weird.

Anyways, I look forward to UC3. I hope SA is gone, as I've never seen anything like it in any game.

@deimos2k6 that's the easy part. to track your motion relative to the zero point all you need to do is have a microphone sitting on a table instead of your backpack.
