apparent motion seizure is one of those technologies that seems all hi - tech and futurey , until you see a grown valet walk around a studio in a onesie with a lot of ping niff balls stuck to him . Disney’sabout to shift that .
Working with Carnegie Mellon University , Disney Research has made a breakthrough in motion capture that lets actors fatigue cameras instead of the trailing balls . This lets directors take the action outside the studio and into the world at large . sport games are a great example of complex movement succession that are difficult to capture in the confines of a studio apartment .
The new technique , called “ Structure from Motion , ” employ about 20 outward - face cameras lather to the actor , which are calibrate based on their placement on the torso and extraneous reference degree . It ’s not quite quick for literal use yet , since it ’s not yet as precise as traditional motion capture , and just one minute of data can take a whole day to sue . But it ’s going to be pretty awesome when you may whip a clustering of GoPros to yourself and commemorate apparent motion information of you doing all maner of reckless , debaucherous , or otherwise irresponsible affair .
