Setting T Pose Direction in Mocap Applications

The world orientation (x, y, z) can vary among different mocap devices. Therefore, it's important to pre-configure the T-pose in the associated mocap application to achieve consistent results.

The facing direction in iClone is -Y.

Below are some of popular mocap applications and how the T-pose should be oriented prior to calibration.

  • Vicon: Use the default T-pose orientation for calibration.
  • OptiTrack: Have the character face +Z prior to calibration.
  • Xsens: Have the character face +X prior to calibration.
  • Perception Neuron / Neuron Gloves: Have the character face +Z prior to calibration.
  • Rokoko: Have the character face +Z prior to calibration.
