I was involved in no less than 4 papers at this year’s NIME conference in Ann Arbor, Michigan. K. Nymoen, A. Voldsund, S. A. v. D. Skogstad, A. R. Jensenius, and J. Tørresen. **Comparing motion data from an iPod touch to a high-end optical infrared marker-based motion capture system **[PDF] The paper presents an analysis of the quality of motion data from an iPod Touch (4th gen.). Acceleration and orientation data derived from internal sensors of an iPod is compared to data from a high end optical infrared marker-based motion capture system (Qualisys) in terms of latency, jitter, accuracy and precision.

I will participate in a motion capture workshop at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) tomorrow. My contribution will consist of the following: Lecture: Introduction to motion capture (in music analysis and performance) Demo 1: Working with video analysis using the Musical Gestures Toolbox Demo 2: The Xsens MVN BioMech mobile mocap suit Workshop: Analysis and performance with Wii controllers, Phidgets accelerometers and Kinect Below are various resources.
