Im trying to find out if theres full body motion tracking and rigging because i want to use my own body movement in blender animation, i dont want to download others motion captured stuff. i dont want to use a kinect camera for motion tracking my character movement. is there a way to track the full body to use in animating a human like character only using a dslr camera not a kinect?
I want to animate a character in a realistic but easy way. I was thinking that I could use videos of me performing the actions I want to have on my characters, however I can't find a way of placing the videos and make the character to follow my movements in an automated way, like motion tracking. How can I animate automatically using this technique? Are there any Plug-ins to work like this? Is this mehod actually more useful than standard animation techniques?

What is the best method for adding options to a &lt;select&gt; from a JavaScript object using jQuery?  I'm looking for something that I don't need a plugin to do, but I would also be interested in the plugins that are out there.  This is what I did:  selectValues = { "1": "test 1", "2": "test 2" };  for (key in selectValues) {   if (typeof (selectValues[key] == 'string') {     $('#mySelect').append('&lt;option value="' + key + '"&gt;' + selectValues[key] + '&lt;/option&gt;');   } }   A clean/simple solution:  This is a cleaned up and simplified :  $.each(selectValues, function(key, value) {      $('#mySelect')           .append($('&lt;option&gt;', { value : key })           .text(value)); });   Changes from matdumsa's: (1) removed the close tag for the option inside append() and (2) moved the properties/attributes into an map as the second parameter of append(). In the past month, I've been really busy with the university and stuff, and I don't sleep as much as I used to. I usually sleep 4-5 hours a night.  I haven't been doing that extensively ( I always kept a good sleeping routine), but can the lack of sleep affect my health on the long term ? Using Label Expression with Text Formatting Tags and Ampersand I have auto traced a photograph in illustrator - its got thousands of vectors once I expand it and illustrator has converted each of them to a filled colour - I want to now trace the edges of them with a grungy brush but using the underlying fill colour. Where in illustrator can I stroke or outline these fills using the underlying colour - surely this is something that the program automatically does?   I've found this script online but don't know how to implement it. I'm new to this so any help appreciated. Many thanks.

Selection Tool doesn't rotate in Illustrator Why my selection tool doesn't rotate object? I selected the object and it doesn't work. How do I fix this? How does QGIS Zonal Statistics handle partially overlapping pixels? There are a couple Stackexchange posts asking this question, but neither of them were sufficiently answered:       I am writing Python scripts that perform essentially the same operations as Zonal Stats, and I have been using Zonal Stats to check my scripts' outputs.   I have noticed that when there are many cells in the polygon being queried, my results match perfectly, but there are discrepancies when there are only a few raster cells in the polygon. The following is an example of this. I am computing "count" for each polygon.  Exhibit 1:   The returned count is 0.45, which looks roughly correct if pixels can be treated fractionally rather than simply in/out.  Exhibit 2:   Similar result; count is 0.39.  Exhibit 3:    With a larger poylgon, now we see the count is exactly 2. Note that there are exactly 2 pixel centers contained in the polygon.  Exhibit 4:    Here, only one pixel center is within the polygon. The count is 1.008, though. If you exclude the polygon area from the pixel whose center is in the polygon, the remaining area is obviously greater than 0.008 of a pixel.   From these exhibits, it seems that Zonal Statistics treats these cases specially. It looks like to me that if there are less than 2 pixel centers within the polygon, it performs some kind of averaging such as polygon_area/raster_cell_area to return the count. I should note that I have 48 of these polygons, and all returned counts greater than or equal to 2 are integers; fractional counts are only returned for &lt;2.  How are these fractional-pixel counts incorporated into the other statistics output by Zonal Stats?    indicates strange behavior with max/min when using large raster cells, and my own testing returns mean values not congruous with simple "pixel center in/out of the polygon." To reiterate, I get exact agreement when the underlying raster contains many pixels within the polygon. I couldn't find any documentation about this, and it may be important when people have never had problems with Zonal Stats but use a coarse raster and remain unaware that there is a different behavior when there are only a few pixels within the polygon. I have a document divided into \part \chapter \section and \subsection. I have 3 parts and in each part I reset all the counters.

How to refer Javascript cloud page in my email in content builder? Are film capacitors affected by DC bias? After looking around, I have found quite a few things about how DC bias reduces effective capacitance for a ceramic, or electrolytic capacitor, however nothing seems to talk about the effect on film capacitors. I've found a couple of papers about film caps (such as: ), and they mention frequency and temperature, but I can't find anything about DC bias reducing capacitance.  I have obviously checked the data sheet of the component I plan on using (), but there isn't anything about DC bias in that (unless I've just failed at spotting it).  This suggests to me that they aren't affected by DC bias, but that seems a bit of a bold claim, and I can't see that stated anywhere.  Are film capacitor values affected by DC bias? If so, can anyone point me to some data about what the roll off is?  I am planning to use some film capacitors in an application with 48-60V DC across the capacitors and a ripple current around 30 amps. How do you import CA certificates onto an Android phone? I want to connect to my University's wireless using my Nexus One. When I go to "Add Wi-Fi network" in Wireless Settings I fill in the Network SSID and select 802.1x Enterprise for the security and fill everything out.  The problem is that our university's wireless uses Thawte Premium Server CA certificate for certification.  When I click the drop down list for CA certificate I get nothing in the list (just N/A)  Now I have the certificate (Thawte Premium Server CA.pem) and have moved it to my SD card, but it doesn't look like Android automatically detects it.  Where should I put the certificate so that the Android wireless manager recognizes it. In other words, how can I import a CA certificate so that Android recognizes that it is on the phone and displays it in the CA Certificate drop down list.  Thanks for any help,  Tomek  P.S. My phone is not rooted  EDIT: After doing some research it looks like you are able to install certificates by going to your phone's settings > Location &amp; Security > Install from SD card  Unfortunately it looks like the only accepted file extension is .p12. It does not look like there is a way to import .cer or .pem files (which are the only two files that come with the Thawte certificates) at this moment.  It does look like you can use a converter to convert your .cer or .pem files to .p12, however a key file is needed.    I do not know where to get this key file for the Thawte certificates. I know only the very basics of TikZ, having only used it to produce a pretty flow chart for one of my documents. I recently learned that you can use Inkscape and export to TikZ.  What are the limitations of the Inkscape->TikZ workflow? Is there some compelling reason to take the time to learn TikZ (which I'm told has a fairly steep learning curve) rather than simply exporting to TikZ from Inkscape? How can I publish my game (*.aab file) on google play? How to replace a video on YouTube Is it OK to use a forward slash '/' between words other than the obvious 'and/or'? I don't want to get into the proper use of the phrase 'and/or', but rather to investigate the use of the forward slash between other words. Examples:   I have an interview with him/her this afternoon. He has a large binder/notebook.   And even separating just letters:   I connected the i/o ports. (input/ouput) Mark the field as n/a. (not applicable) I did it w/o her help. (without)   It seems as thought the forward slash can be used to indicate an option, display ambiguity, shorten 2 words and shorten 1 word (and others).  Is it OK to use a slash to separate these words/letters (yes, that was intended), or is it better to explicitly say 'his or her'? One more thing, is it correct to 'chain' these phrases together? I'm horrible with examples but here's one:   I don't open letters/mail that aren't/isn't addressed to me.
