Ghost Track Augmentation

The ghost augmentation tracks users’ movements in the environment, including position of head, body and hands. Furthermore, an audio recording is added. A visualisation of the captured actions can be previewed using the play function.

The ghost augmentation allows a user to record both movement and voice, which is then played back using a male or female abstract 3D avatar.

When using a HoloLens, the ghost augmentation will not only record the body location of the user, but will also track their hand movements.

Unfortunately, due to the lack of sensors, hand tracking is not currently available on mobile devices. Ghosts recorded on Hololens, however, will track hand movements, and these recordings will play back correctly (with hand movement) also on the mobile apps.
