ABSTRACT
Motion capture is the process of encoding motion from the real world into the digital medium in three dimensions. More simply, motion capture is a technique for measuring things. Used cleverly, it can be used to measure the motions of the human body. Once recorded, that motion can be used to drive a digital character or breathe life into inanimate objects. Performance Capture is a term that usually refers to a subcategory of Motion Capture where an actor’s face and body performance are recorded simultaneously.
