NaturalPoint – Mike:
In the calibration menu, there are options for “Data acquisition”. Try dropping “Min Camera Coverage %” to 10, then rewand. Don’t worry about the calibration quality, just make sure the cameras are relatively placed correctly. Set the ground plane, do a quick recording of the ground plane in place, then send that .pt2 file to support@naturalpoint.com. I’ll take a look at your camera positioning more in depth and give you some analysis.
Don Burroni’s set up: Looks like the side with high and low cameras (like camera 2 and 3 in SMALLab), they look at different point in the space to form a longer more inclusive vertical view. Other single cameras look at the center point of the space.
12/16/13 I came to calibrate the cameras for tomorrow’s bosslevel game: Robe’s box. However, when I tried to adjust camera no.9, I was electrocuted by the camera. The camera disconnected from the tracking tool right after the discharge and I have to restart the system to get the camera back. This has never happened to me before, so I called Optitrack to make sure this is not a sight of hardware failure. The technician said it might be the static electricity.
