Not defending anything, but just to remind 60 fps of a pointgrey camera is not slow.<br>

for gesture, i consider everything under 200Hz as slow.<br>
including the wiimote 100Hz.<br>
<br>
by example, things like this have to be done at 1000Hz:<br>

you probably will have a lot of trouble in dealing with 60 frames trying to cycle through your code every second.<br>

you have problem analysing the image, but dealing with the data is no problem.<div class="im"><br>

But not the best for 3d positioning of a point in space,<br>
</blockquote></div>
they will not provide any information regarding 3d positioning.<br>
<br>
<br>
the question is what information do you really want...<br>
if you want the position of someone in space, then you have to use a camera. but you can also track he's movement with a wacom.<br>
if you want to track it's gesture, then you need something faster. faster than a camera.<div class="im"><br>

but excellent at giving the rotation of that point in space (i.e.: accels, gyros).<br>

yep.<br>

<br>
That's a good point about the sensors, I didn't know this camera-latency<br>
problem.<br>
WHat kind of sensor have you used in your work ?<br>
Have you used wireless sensors ?<br>
<br>

<br>
A combination of the two could be an idea, but then it's complicated to<br>
merge the data...<br>
<br>
Thanks for the infos<br>
