Mocap Without Limits - How Xsens Solved the Drift Dilemma
25th June 2024, written by Remco Sikkema——In my 15 years with XSENS, I have witnessed the evolution of one of the most advanced motion capture systems ever built. Through this journey, we have faced and overcome numerous technical challenges. While no technology is without flaw, we strive to make our motion capture system as close to perfect as possible.
Our mocap systems feature sensors worn directly on the body – either embedded in a suit or attached using straps. Placed strategically on key points of the human body, these sensors measure movement without relying on external cameras. This offers unmatched freedom and flexibility to users, allowing them to simply put on the Xsens suit, and capture motion in any environment. However, there is one drawback to inertial motion capture known as ‘drift’, and for us to deliver our promise of effortless mocap, we had to take care of it.
What is drift?
Drift occurs when, after recording a
movement that ends at the same location as it began, the motion capture
software indicates a different starting point. Essentially, the virtual
representation of the movement doesn’t align perfectly with the movement
in the real world. Research has shown that drift is more prominent
during fast, dynamic movements such as running, and when the user is not
touching the ground, such as during jumps or fight scenes. On the other
hand, slow and deliberate movements result in less drift.
Why does it happen?
Due to a lack of external references
such as cameras, inertial mocap lack absolute positioning. They rely on
mathematical calculations to determine position. These calculations tend
to introduce minor errors and as the errors accumulate over time, there
is noticeable drift in positioning. Drift is inherent to inertial mocap
and eliminating it completely is a challenge. However, at Xsens, we
have made remarkable strides in bringing it down to a minimum.
How did we solve it?
Our advanced sensor fusion algorithms
are key to our success in minimizing drift. With decades of experience
and expertise embedded in our technology, we have leveraged machine
learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) to optimize our
algorithms for the best possible result. We continuously refine these
algorithms, especially for scenarios most prone to drift, such as fast
movements or activities with low ground contact. This is significantly
enhanced the precision and reliability of our system.
Our achievement in minimizing drift is unmatched in the industry. No other inertial mocap product on the market can demonstrate such a result.

Height Tracking with Xsens Motion Capture
Xsens motion capture is based on inertial technology, meaning the technology is in the suit and you do not need external input, like cameras. The big advantage is that you can just jump in the suit and start capturing anywhere you like. Inertial motion capture also has downsides, like height tracking, or multi-level. The inertial sensors measure orientation, speed, and heading. But they cannot measure height.

Mocap Freedom: How Xsens Solved the ‘Out-of-Range’ Challenge
Inertial motion capture has transformed the way we capture movement, enabling artists, creators and other users to break free from the limitations of studios and complicated setups. With on-body sensors and wireless connectivity, actors can move and express freely. However, there’s always the fear of going out of range.

Will the Stuntman Break the Xsens Mocap System?
We often get questions about stunt capture. During stunt capture, the actor (or actors) perform intense and highly dynamic movements, and most of the time they need protection such as mats or harnesses. This can be hard on the actor, but also on the mocap gear, will it hold? Our answer is simple: It will probably break the actor first before it breaks the Xsens system.
