複数の携帯型モーションキャプチャデバイスのための相互作用空間最適化：キャプチャボリュームの拡大

原文アブストラクト

Markerless motion capture devices such as the Leap Motion Controller (LMC) have been extensively used for tracking hand, wrist, and forearm positions as an alternative to Marker-based Motion Capture (MMC). However, previous studies have highlighted the subpar performance of LMC in reliably recording hand kinematics. In this study, we employ four LMC devices to optimize their collective tracking volume, aiming to enhance the accuracy and precision of hand kinematics. Through Monte Carlo simulation, we determine an optimized layout for the four LMC devices and subsequently conduct reliability and validity experiments encompassing 1560 trials across ten subjects. The combined tracking volume is validated against an MMC system, particularly for kinematic movements involving wrist, index, and thumb flexion. Utilizing calculation resources in one computer, our result of the optimized configuration has a better visibility rate with a value of 0.05 $\pm$ 0.55 compared to the initial configuration with -0.07 $\pm$ 0.40. Multiple Leap Motion Controllers (LMCs) have proven to increase the interaction space of capture volume but are still unable to give agreeable measurements from dynamic movement.
