Volvo Art Session

Toby K and Aidan Boyle were engaged by Flora Fauna Visions to provide a custom motion tracking solution for a live dance performance in Zurich as part of the Volvo Art Sessions 2017.

 

Challenges included
– Integrating data from multiple sensors over a large area to track multiple performers. Intelligence had to be programmed into the tracking system to allow it to understand that a tracked ID crossing the fields of view of multiple sensors may or may not be the same object.
– Communications with inflexible media playback systems where both the protocol and accepted input ranges were only known very late in the project. Our software had to be flexible but also extremely reliable with little testing for this one off performance
