UMCE-FM: Untethered Motion Capture Evaluation for Flightline Maintenance Support
Abstract
The purpose of this research was to explore and evaluate the utility of novel motion capture technologies within the Air Force maintenance domain. The primary objective was to determine the potential of untethered motion capture capabilities for real-time human subject motion capture and performance data collection with full-scale physical props. The second objective was to evaluate data collected during maintenance task performance validation for the purpose of instruction generation and maintenance training. The effort consisted of domain analysis, conceptual design definition, prototype development, and a performance evaluation within relevant operational maintenance scenarios. Both university laboratories and field-based research environments were used to evaluate the efficacy of untethered motion capture.
