The purpose of this paper is to examine and compare two simple motion capturesystems. The first system consists of two cameras, and the second system consists of acamera with a depth sensor. The problem with both systems is their limited field ofview. If the actor is facing a camera, that camera will not be able to see an arm if thatarm is placed behind the back.My method in order to do this examination, was to record a number of different typesof motions with both systems, and then evaluate and compare the generated data fromthe two systems. This was done partly by applying it to a 3D character, and partly byinvestigating how good incomplete data could be repaired. Some motions wasrecorded multiple times, each with a different angle. The examination has resulted indifferent conclusions about the two systems.The process of using two cameras was very time consuming and the actor had to standfacing the cameras more or less. The depth sensing camera was shown to be able tohandle a wider range of motions, and the angle relative to the cameras wasn't aslimited. Some advantages could be found compared to the depth sensing camera,which had troubles handling certain types of arm and head rotations. This waspossible to handle with two cameras. / Validerat; 20140627 (global_studentproject_submitter)
