| dc.description.abstract | A realtime wireless motion tracking system is developed. The system is capable of tracking
the orientations of multiple wireless sensors, using a semi-distributed implementation to reduce
network bandwidth and latency, to produce real-time animation of rigid body models, such as
the human skeleton. The system has been demonstrated to be capable of full-body posture
tracking of a human subject using fifteen devices communicating with a basestation over a
single, low bandwidth, radio channel.
The thesis covers the theory, design, and implementation of the tracking platform, the evaluation
of the platform’s performance, and presents a summary of possible future applications. | en |
