News Summary:
OptiTrack motion capture technology was recently deployed to achieve a Guinness World Record on September 21, capturing 37 performers simultaneously in real-time for the RAAKA project, earning the "Most People Motion-Captured in Real-Time" title. Previously, on August 3, OptiTrack elaborated on its multi-year technology partnership with Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), first announced in July, detailing the equipping of two research facilities at CMU's Robotics Innovation Center (RIC). This installation, which includes 92 cameras across an indoor studio and an outdoor drone cage specifically designated as "Drone Cage Optitrack," supports robotics, physical AI research, multi-robot cooperative experiments, and 1:1 real-world motion simulations for CMU's Extended Reality Technology Center. The setup features 28 PrimeX41 and 4 Prime Color cameras indoors, 60 VersaX120 outdoor cameras, and integrates OptiTrack's ActiveIO tracking technology. Earlier in July, OptiTrack unveiled its ActiveIO motion tracking platform, a new hardware ecosystem combining two-way RF communication, IMU sensor fusion, and intelligent marker identification. This platform, designed for demanding real-time environments, enhances tracking accuracy, scalability, and extended range, targeting applications in robotics, virtual production, location-based VR, live events, and tactical training.
