There are some more affordable professional systems (i forgot the name), but they are still a few thousand dollars. I have seen some DIY mocap systems made with wiimotes, but i’m not sure if you can do a full body, due to the limited number of markers. Here is a site about wiimote-based motion tracking: http://johnnylee.net/projects/wii/ ——————————————— http://www.olilarkin.co.uk / http://olilarkin.blogspot.com #170742
