motion capture camera

[Deep_End]

Hello Guys

My name is Deependra, I am new to the software lab view and I am trying to understand it, I work at a lab at the UM Dbn campus and here we' re trying to conduct a study on musculoskeletal disorders, in this, we' re trying to control the motion capture cameras with LabVIEW, I am trying to find the basic VI codes for this task, along with that, if anyone of you can give me some suggestion in this regard, I would really appreciate it. 

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Deependra

What is the camera that you are using? 

[Deep_End]

hello!!!!

I am using an IR motion capture camera BTS Bioengineering smart capture BTS DX 400, although old, but the camera still works, just need to figure out how to integrate the camera and labview. 

Thanks in advance

I am not sure about the camera.  I will check and let you know.  Have you installed vision development module and vision acquisition? 

[Deep_End]

thanks for the response, as I said that, I am really new to the LabVIEW, so, I would really appreciate if you can elaborate what is a vision development module and vision acquisition, I am aware about the iMAQ though.. 

[Deep_End]

yeah I do have VAS  module in my s/w. The tool pallete in vision and motion populates various options like- NI-IMAQ, Vision Utilities, NI - IMAQdx, Vision Express, 73xx

From the info i got

---

Hardware and software accessories for the direct control of the system and integration with third party systems

---

 Did you get some drivers

---

Add-on:

• BTS SMART-Analyzer software
• BTS SMART-Clinic software
• BTS SMART-Performance software
• Development Tool BTS SDK

---

What does the SDK contain?

[Deep_End]

Hello

I do have all those necessary add ons, my concern is more about finding the proper VI code, although I could modify some parts of it once I acquire it. 

Thanks

Ok I thought you were having difficulty in getting the camera detected. Please give details of what you are trying to do

We' re conducting a study on musculoskeletal disorders caused due to prolonged sitting, it's a project based on ergonomics, for that our quest to integrate all the components that we' re using, now these components inc a motion capture camera, the other hardware like force plate and emg, we have been able to calibrate them and integrate with LabVIEW, its' the motion capture camera, that we' re having issues with, so, I was hoping that if there's any VI code or any other source, citation from where I could get get some information on how to accomplish this.
