I just discovered there is a
tai chi motion capture facility only about half an hours drive away from me at the University of Portsmouth! It seems that it is open to the public in principle (by arrangement), so I'm sorely tempted to go down there myself! Maybe this will be a realistic way in to start
scientifically analysing my movements. And a lot of fun of course :-)
Obviously this is just a general motion capture facility, but it seems that one of the lecturers there is a fan of tai chi so sets his computer science students the task of building a
virtual tai chi trainer system using motion capture and computer graphics. A very cool project no doubt. You can see a
video here.
