Opto-mechanical motion capture system for indirectly measuring the movement of bodies and objects, mainly focused on joints of flexible materials, or which have deformations, which makes difficult the instrumentation with rigid sensors such as potentiometers. This invention consists of an image acquisition device or camera and a visualization bed in which there is a series of transmission cables which convey to the visualization bed the movements generated in the flexible parts to be sensed. The camera is set in such a way that it is possible to capture the image of the transmission cables, enabling the determination of its displacement and thus of the sensed objects. The main object of this invention is to enable the measurement of the movements of the flexible parts of the human body in a simple, cheap and comfortable way for the user of the device.

L'invention concerne un système de capture de mouvement opto-mécanique pour la mesure indirecte du mouvement de corps et d'objets, destiné essentiellement aux articulations de matières souples ou irrégulières rendant difficile une instrumentation avec des capteurs rigides tels que les potentiomètres. L'invention comprend un dispositif d'acquisition d'images ou une caméra et une plaque de visualisation dans laquelle on dispose une série de câbles de transmission, lesquels transmettent les mouvements produits dans les parties souples soumises à détection jusqu'à la plaque de visualisation. La caméra est disposée de façon à capturer l'image des câbles de transmission, ce qui permet d'en déterminer le déplacement et, donc, celui des objets soumis à détection. Cette invention a pour principal objet de permettre à l'utilisateur du dispositif de mesurer les mouvements des parties souples du corps humain avec facilité, à moindres frais et de façon pratique.
