Abstract :
This paper proposes a new motion capture system to track foot motion of a walking person using a camera and IR-LEDs (Infrared-Light Emitting Diode). The location and attitude of a foot is determined based on the fixed IR-LEDs landmark in three-dimension world coordinate system. The range of walking can be extended by simply adding more IR-LEDs. Experiment results are given to verify the proposed system.
