Learn about 6DOF

In this webinar we talk about how to track rigid objects in QTM. 6 DOF tracking allows for the measurement of both the position and the orientation of an object.

First, we show how 6 DOF tracking is done in QTM, taking head tracking as an example. Then, we discuss the representation of 6 DOF data in QTM, as well as the export and streaming of 6 DOF data. Finally, we talk about possible applications, based on real-world examples.

Topics covered

  • Introduction to 6 DOF tracking
  • Creating a 6 DOF model in QTM (example: head tracking)
  • Preparation of a rigid body
  • Definition of local coordinate system (LCS)
  • Use of virtual markers
  • Representation of 6 DOF data in QTM
  • Euler angles
  • Export formats and RT streaming
  • Applications
  • Real-world examples

Resources

  • Webinar-6DOF.pdf – The presentation shown in the webinar.
Webinar date May 25, 2016
