Plug in only one Kinect sensor, run 'bintiltkinect.exe', enter a tilt angle, such as '-12', the Kinect sensor will tilt to that angle, see if the Kinect sensor looks at our body, if the tilt angle is not good, run the app again, try another tilt angle, repeat the step, until the Kinect sensor looks at our body properly.

Repeat the above step for every Kinect sensor, until all the Kinect sensors look at our body properly.

Before performance, we need to wear a pair of dark-colored trousers, and wrap a piece of light-colored cloth round the left knee, or simply wear a pair of asymmetric-colored trousers, like this:

Capture

This step is very important, we will use the difference of two knees' brightness to correct skeleton flipping.

Plug in all the Kinect sensors, run 'binmocap.exe' to work, when all the Kinect sensors have recognized our body, the computer will start to beep once per second, the beep sound will repeat for ten times, while beeping, move our body slightly, let the Kinect sensors get familiar with our body, we need to stand straightly at the moment of last beep, the app will use this moment of body orientation as working orientation.

When the beeping stopped, we can perform actions, only one player will be captured, if we want to finish the performance, we can simplely leave the viewport, the motion capture system will stop automatically, but when we come into the viewport again, a new motion capture instance will start automatically, in this way, we can capture multiple performance clips.

When we want to stop working, press 'ESC' key to quit the app.
