Measurement of Human Motion in Performance

This paper describes motion capture work applied to ballet gestures. A wireless gyroscopic sensor based system is used to record the movements of ballet dancers in order to establish a suitable workflow for extreme human movements and to investigate if such equipment is capable of detecting misalign...
