<p>The invention relates to an opto-mechanical motion capture system for indirectly measuring the movement of bodies and objects, intended mainly for flexible or deformable joints which impede the use of rigid sensors such as potentiometers. The invention consists of an image pickup device or camera and a viewing panel containing a series of transmission cables which convey the movements generated by the flexible parts being sensed to the panel. The camera is arranged such that an image of the transmission cables can be captured, thereby enabling the movement of the cables, and consequently that of the sensed objects, to be determined. The primary objective of the invention is to enable the movements of flexible parts of the human body to be measured simply, cheaply and conveniently by the user of the device.</p> |
