Abstract :
Proposes a type of motion capture system that can detect attitude and position with high accuracy and high response-speed. Attitude and position of a target in an alternating field are calculated from an induced signal in a pair of three pickup coils. In this paper, principles of detection, methods for practical use, and a prototype system implemented on digital processing circuits are described in detail.
