🎯 MStudio
Markerless/Marker-based Motion Capture Data Visualization & Editing Tool
Seamlessly visualize, analyze, and edit 3D marker data from motion capture systems
🚀 Quick Start • 📖 Features • 💾 Installation • 🎮 Usage • 🤝 Support
🌟 What is MStudio?
MStudio is a user-friendly application designed for researchers, biomechanists, and motion capture professionals. It provides an intuitive interface to:
- Visualize 3D marker trajectories in real-time
- Analyze movement patterns and joint&segment angles
- Edit and filter motion capture data
- Export processed data for further analysis
Compatible with popular tools like Pose2Sim and Sports2D.
💾 Installation
Option 1: Install from PyPI (Recommended)
# Create a virtual environment (recommended)
conda create -n mstudio python=3.10 -y
conda activate mstudio
# Install MStudio
pip install mstudio
Option 2: Install from Source
git clone https://github.com/hunminkim98/MStudio.git
cd MStudio
pip install .
🚀 Quick Start
Launch MStudio
mstudio
That's it! The application will open with an intuitive interface ready for your motion capture data.
Load Your First Dataset
- Open File your TRC/C3D file or Choose JSON Folder for 2D marker data
- Play the animation using the spacebar
- Explore your data with mouse controls:
- Left click + drag: Rotate view
- Right click + drag: Pan
- Scroll wheel: Zoom
📖 Features
🎮 Usage
Step-by-Step Tutorial
1. Load Your Data
# Launch MStudio
mstudio
# In the application:
# File → Open → Select your .trc or .c3d file
# Or simply drag & drop your file into the window
2. Basic Navigation
| Action | Control |
|---|---|
| Play/Pause Animation | Spacebar or Enter |
| Stop Animation | Spacebar or Enter or Esc |
| Next/Previous Frame | → / ← Arrow keys |
| Rotate View | Left click + drag |
| Pan View | Right click + drag |
| Zoom | Mouse wheel |
3. Analysis Mode
- Click the "Analysis" button to activate
- Select markers by left-clicking in the 3D view:
- 2 markers: Shows distance measurement and segment angle (relative to virtual horizontal line)
- Left-click to cycle through reference axes (X, Y, Z)
- 3 markers: Shows joint angle (middle marker = vertex)
- 2 markers: Shows distance measurement and segment angle (relative to virtual horizontal line)
- Results display directly in the 3D viewport
4. Data Processing
- Filter data: Use the filter panel to apply Butterworth, median, or speed-based filters
- Interpolate gaps: Select problematic markers and use pattern-based interpolation
- Export results: File → Save As → Choose TRC or C3D format
