Abstract
A series of smart phones are mounted in respective tripods to capture motion of a person wearing markers, such as marker balls or reflectors. The videos from the phones are stripped of objects other than the markers and the videos of the markers are combined to render a 3D motion capture structure that may be applied to an image of a VR icon to cause the VR icon to move as the person originally moved.
