[Charlie_hutch123]

Hi does anyone know how I would be able to record a video of skeleton tracking and then get the skeleton data for it to analyse?

Hi Fedor,

Thanks for the response however I am planning on displaying just the simple skeleton tracking as I am using it to help aid coaching in sporting activities. Sorry I should have mentioned this in my first question but I am using the pynuitrack wrapper and want to use nuitrack with python. Is there any code available for running nuitrack in python and being able to record the skeleton tracking and save the joint coordinates to a text file?

Dear Charles Hutchings.

Look at this:

Pynuitrack wrapper

We have tested the Python wrapper on Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 and it worked fine. Please make sure that you’re using the latest Nuitrack versions: Nuitrack Runtime v0.30.0 and Nuitrack SDK v1.5.0. Try to follow the steps from https://github.com/silasalves/pynuitrack/blob/master/README.md from scratch and use the default gcc version (gcc-5 for Ubuntu 16.04 and gcc-7 for Ubuntu 18.04). To run it, copy pynuitrack.so to the “examples” directory and run the command “python test.py”.Please note that the…

The original Nuitrack does not provide the ability to write the skeleton in any format. You need to implement this yourself.

You have two ways.

1. When using the RealSense sensor, you can record video with depth using the RealSense utility. You can then specify this video as a data source in Nuitrack and record the skeleton via the python shell.
2. Write the skeleton live from the source data from Nuitrack via the python shell.

Please let me know if you have any other questions
