Comment: Migrated to Confluence 4.0

Saturday:

Gregg showed us the basics of the Vicon system.

  • set up and calibrated cameras
  • did not bring erg

The Vicon system emits infrared radiation and detects the radiation reflected back from these reflective spherical markers. So, in order to remove interference, we have to cover up any shiny parts on the erg that could also reflect infrared. Michael 
Sunday: 

We planned to Skype Andy at 2pm, but we had to push back the meeting to Tuesday. Instead, we went over to the Ithaca Mall to grab masking tape and cardboard in order to cover up the shiny metal parts on the erg.
Above: Masking tape masked the reflective surfaces (seat bar, nuts, chains, etc.) on the erg.
