Illustration 1-1: Tracking with decisive points in VioTrack R
2 Daily use
2.1 Switch on 1/1
For the daily start-up of the system, please use the following steps:
1. Start master and slave cameras: the slave camera is switched on
and o via the power supply which may be provided by the master
camera.
2. Set the camera at starting position: for the best possible start,
the camera is to be placed approximately in the position where the
rst keyframes were taken.
3. Start Tracking Workstation: the system boots and automatically
starts the preset VioTrack. Three processes are then started:
3.a VioTrack Master
3.b VioTrack Master Video
3.c VioTrack R
4. The system will automatically restore the last reconstruction:
the video of the slave camera will be examined, searching for the
pattern of the last used reconstruction and the camera will locate its
position based on the detected points.
5. The system now sends the real-time tracking data to the
graphics engine: In the VioTrack R window, the known part of the
video is marked in blue because reliable points are detected there
(illustration 1-1). In the VioTrack Master video, the C key can be used
to display a wireframe cube which is on the ground at the origin
(illustration 1-2) and becomes larger and smaller when zooming
analogously to the real video.
