RESUMO
Karate has become more popular, and researches have been conducted on training methods and motion analysis related to karate. The AR system for karate is an effective system for training and for the audience to understand the performance. To develop the AR system, it is necessary to acquire the movement of the performer. The purpose of the research is to assess a motion capture system to estimate a karate performer's full-body position and posture from HoloLens 2, without wearing any attachments. We used ThreeDPoseUnityBarracuda to estimate the position and posture of the performer's joints. In the experiment, the estimated joint's positions were compared with actual positions using the inertial three-dimensional motion capture. As results, although the error increased when the performer's movement was large, the median error between the estimated and actual positions was a maximum of 0.24 m at the x-coordinate of the right hand, and high accuracy was obtained when the performer's movement was small.
