Capture: People/Area/Objects

What size capture area do I need and how many people can I capture?

The system is pretty flexible but we recommend reading the Capture Volumes section for more information.

How well does your system deal with occlusion?

Provided that the performers are fully visible in at least 2 cameras, we will capture data for them. The AI understands the motion using biomechanical models , providing constraints on the movements of the body.

Can your system deal with objects like tables or boxes?

It can, with correct camera placement and enough cameras to prevent occlusion.

Can the cameras be mounted at different levels?

They can, as long as the performer is fully framed at the location at which they are being captured.

Can you capture animals?

Not at this point in time. We capture bipedal humanoid subjects.

Do the cameras have to be stationary?

Yes, they do.

What if one of the cameras is bumped?

A camera being bumped slightly or occluded briefly is okay. However, if a camera is knocked over then we recommend recalibrating, or processing without that camera.

Does every actor have to do a calibration?

Nope, anyone can be the calibration actor and based on this, the system will work out the dimensions of the other actors accordingly.

What if somebody goes out of the capture volume?

If the actor is not visible for a period, we recommend they do a T-pose upon re-entry, to ensure the system recognises them.

Can you capture objects?

We can currently capture a football or other round object, we'll be supporting more objects into the system over time.

Can I capture select people within a scene?

You can't ignore people in the scene, so you'd have to capture everyone and discard the tracks you don't want after processing.

Can you capture fingers?

We can indeed! For best finger capture, we recommend cameras being close to the hands.

How accurate is your finger tracking?

Our finger tracking is around 70% quality compared to our body tracking of 90%.

Can I capture hands without the body?

We actully need the body to make sure the orientation of the hands is correct, so we advise on capturing both at the same time.

What lighting conditions can you deal with?

We can support a variety of lighting conditions, such as indoor office lighting, natural outdoor lighting, regular studio lights and on-set lighting.

We recommend good contrast between the performers and the background. If the human eye cannot make out the body and it's limbs, the platform won't be able to either. If you're unsure or need advice, pelase get in touch with a move.ai team member or reach out to support@move.ai.
