Identification System in Mocap Studio

This guide explains how to use the Identification feature in AR 51’s Mocap Studio. It covers how to register entities, view their persistent labels, and edit or forget entity identities using the main menu or the context menu.


Starting the Entity Registration Process

To begin entity registration, open the main menu and select:

Identification → Start Registration

During this phase, all individuals who need persistent identification should be present in the capture space and look toward the AR 51 cameras as much as possible.

For better visualization, enable the Detection Identifier overlay (Shortcut: 8, or via View → Detection Identifier).

Identification Menu Item

Once registered, entity labels will appear:

  • Blue: Tracking (skeleton) ID (valid only inside the capture area)
  • Green: Persistent Entity ID (remains even if the person exits and re-enters the space)

EntityId and Display Name Labels


Editing Entity Display Name

Use can provide a display name for each persistant id. This can provide an easier way to recognize the identified person. This entity ID along with the display name is also shared and distributed to all clients (i.e. unreal-engine, unity).

Option 1: Using Context Menu

  1. Right-click on a tracked character in the viewport.
  2. Click Rename Entity Display Name.

Edit Display Name and Forget Entity Context Menu

Notes

  • Registration must be performed with all necessary individuals present and facing the cameras.
  • Labels provide a reliable way to confirm identification in real time.
  • The system ensures that each entity retains their identity across multiple tracking sessions.

Do not register the same person twice. Try to provide a single registration for each person. When a person has more than one registered entity, identification will not provide a coherent output.
