Summary
1. 3D models are made of vertices, which are manipulated by installing pose data.
2. 3D models provide benefits that 2D video doesn't such as transparency control.
3. There are many options to make 3D models including once come for free.
How does a 3d model work?
Let's start with the definition of a 3D model. A 3D model is consist of a pile of vertices placed in a 3D environment.
Those vertices form edges and faces of a 3D model. Each vertices of the model can be modified to change the shape.
A 3D modeling software can identify the location of each vertices by using coordinate data.
What are benefits of a 3D model?
The biggest benefit of using a 3D model is in that you can store and manipulate your motion data as a form of data.
You can merge, separate, average and analyze the data for your purpose. By combining the data, for example, you can analyze statistic tendencies of other' motion.
Also, you can view a 3D model from different angels, change transparency, animation speed, and add auxiliary information such as gridlines, etc. Make an account and try it yourself.
