Clean up markerless data in Shogun Post

The following features in Shogun Post improve the quality of your captured markerless data:

• Reprocess ensures your capture has no dropped frames.

• Clean improves the quality of your 3D keypoint marker data, automatically removing incorrect positions and noise. You can perform additional cleaning manually, using the Shogun Post marker-cleaning tools.

To automatically clean your markerless capture:

1. Start Vicon Shogun Post 1.15 or later.

   

2. Load your capture in Shogun Post. For more information, see Load mocap data files into Shogun Post in Getting started with Vicon Shogun Post.

3. If the reprocessing dialog is displayed, you must reprocess your data before you can use Clean.
   To reprocess your data, click Yes.

   

4. In the Processing panel, click the Markerless Mocap tab.

   

5. To clean your capture, click Clean.

   

You can track the progress of the cleanup by looking at the set of progress bars in the bottom left corner of the app.

The bar on the left displays the progress of the entire cleanup process.

The bar on the right displays the progress of the individual steps of the cleanup process, such as Clean and Resolve labeling.

Clean markerless data with batch processing in Shogun Post

If you have multiple capture files to clean, you can load these files into Shogun Post and process them automatically using the batch processing feature.

Shogun Post can batch process files sequentially in the application or in parallel—the latter enables you to continue with other tasks while batch processing continues in the background. You can process files in parallel within a single PC, or “farm” out the work across multiple PCs.

To batch process files in Shogun Post:

1. In Shogun Post, on the Panels tab of the ribbon, select Batching.

2. From the Mode list, select Reprocess Markerless.

   

3. Configure the options. For more information, see Batch process files in Shogun Post in Getting more from Vicon Shogun Post.

4. (Optional) To farm out the batching process in parallel or across multiple PCs, expand the Farm section, select Farm and configure the options.

   

5. Ensure the Files and Processing section is expanded and click Add Files to select the files to process.

6. After you have added the files, click Start.
