Dear Biomch-L Readers,
I am a post graduate student studying algorithms for 3-D movement analysis systems. I would like to know how one calculates and expresses the spatial resolution of the systems. Here are few examples.
For instance in H.Hatze (1988) HIGH-PRECISION THREE-DIMENSIONAL PHOTOGRAMMETRIC CALIBRATION AND OBJECT SPACE RECONSTRUCTION USING A MODIFIED DLT-APPROACH. J. Biomechanics 21, 533-538 is written :
"The highest reconstruction accuracy of 0.733mm rms mean error was obtained...
..This correspondes (1.How is that correspondence established?) to a spatial resolution of about one part in 2860 or 0.035% overall accuracy."
On the other hand in the paper S. Fioretti et al (1985) STEREOMETRY IN VERY CLOSE-RANGE STEREOPHOTOGRAMMETRY WITH NON-METRIC CAMERAS FOR HUMAN MOVEMENT ANALYSIS. J. Biomechanics, 18. 831-842 is said:
"The attainable accuracy is high, better than 0.1% of the observation distance".
2. How is the observation distance now involved since I can change field of view by changing cameras zoom and maintaing same distance? Would not be field of view more appropriate?
I have found in Andriacchi T.P. et al (1979) THREE-DIMENSIONAL DATA PROCESSING IN HUMAN MOTION ANALYSIS, J. Biomechanocal Engineering, 101. 279-283: "A resolution of one part in 500 was achived over a viewing field of 2.4m". It is stil not clear how they came up with that number?
3. It seems to me that all authors calculate rms values in x,y and z directions, take into account field of view and/or camera (which camera) distance and give the spatial resolution? But how it is done?
4. Some authors are also mentioning confidence intervals. Is there any standard (standard test or so) for expressing systems spatial accuracy therefore when I am bying one I will know where I am at?
Thank you all in advance. I will be glad to publish a summary of responses later on.
