How to Assemble MOVIN TRACIN

1. Set Up the Tripod

You should set the tripod's height depending on the model of MOVIN TRACIN.
  • Extend the tripod to the recommended height depending on your model:

    • For MT-110, set the height to 50 cm

    • For MT-200, set the height to 85 cm

  • Ensure the tripod legs are spread out fully and stably.

2. Mount MOVIN TRACIN to the Tripod

Place MOVIN TRACIN on the tripod head.
  • Mounting method varies depending on the type of quick mount on your tripod:

  • Manual Quick Mount:

    • Place MOVIN TRACIN on the tripod head.

    • Turn the quick mount clockwise (to the left) to lock it.

    • To detach, turn it counterclockwise (to the right).

  • Auto Quick Mount:

    • Gently press MOVIN TRACIN down onto the tripod head until it clicks into place automatically.

    • To remove it, rotate the mount clockwise and lift the device.

    • If auto-lock fails, manually rotate the quick mount clockwise before positioning the device.

  • Before moving on, double-check that MOVIN TRACIN is firmly secured to the tripod.

3. Secure the Mocap Zone

  • The mocap zone is the space where MOVIN TRACIN captures human motion. Use the following guidelines to define and mark your mocap zone.

(+) mark in the picture is the place for setting MOVIN TRACIN.
  • The center of the mocap zone is located 3 meters in front of MOVIN TRACIN.

  • From this center point, the default range is 0.5m to 2.0m forward (toward MOVIN TRACIN), and 0.5m to 2.5m to the rear and sides.

    • We recommend clearly marking the center and corners with tape to distinguish the zone boundaries.

  • Remove all objects inside the mocap zone to avoid tracking interference.

    • If the space cannot be cleared, reduce the zone size during setup in MOVIN Studio.

4. Check the Device Level

Check the device level via a circular level indicator.
  • On top of MOVIN TRACIN, you'll find a circular level indicator.

  • Ensure the bubble is within the red circle to confirm the device is level.

    • If the device is tilted, your motion capture data may become distorted. Reposition the tripod on a stable, flat surface if necessary.

Great! You're all set with the hardware. Now let’s move on to installing the MOVIN Studio software on your computer.
