Availability of a motion capture system for MAV characterization and validation for inspection applications

 An Optitrack motion capture (mocap) system from NaturalPoint Inc. is now available at the SRV lab. The mocap system comprises 8 cameras —4x PRIME13W (FOV 82º, at the laboratory mid points) and 4x PRIME13 (FOV 56º, at the laboratory corners)— and a 24-port Ethernet switch, together with a desktop computer running the motion capture software. (Funded in the context of the MOCAP project by the Government of the Balearic Islands and by FEDER fundings.)
