Qualisys Animation Marker Set

The Qualisys Animation Marker Set is dedicated to character animation applications using the Qualisys Skeleton Solver. For detailed information about the Qualisys Animation Marker Set, you can open the marker set guide via the Skeleton menu.

The marker set guide contains information about:

  • The markers and their placement.

  • The use of optional markers for a better definition of the orientation of the skeleton segments.

  • T-pose requirements, see also chapter T-pose.

  • The use of extra markers, see also chapter Adding extra markers to a skeleton.

Two AIM models for the Qualisys Animation Marker Set are included in the installation of QTM in the subfolder Models\AIM\:

  • Animation.qam
    Generic AIM model with the default markers.

  • Animation_Optional.qam
    Generic AIM model including both default and all the optional markers as described in the Animation Marker Set Guide.

  • Animation AIM models with fingers
    To track fingers the Animation marker set can be combined with the Full Fingers marker set or Claw marker set, for more information about these AIM models see chapters Qualisys Full Fingers Marker Set, or Qualisys Claw Marker Set, respectively.

For more information about automatic labeling of the markers, see chapter Automatic labeling of markers or Traqr configuration for skeleton tracking.

It is possible to use alternative labels for the markers. This can be useful if you have existing files with a different markers set. For more information on how to use a different mapping of markers, see chapter Skeleton marker label mapping.
