1. A system for capturing motion, comprising:
- a motion capture volume configured to include at least one moving object having markers defining a plurality of points on said at least one moving object;
at least one mobile motion capture camera, said at least one mobile motion capture camera configured to be moveable within said motion capture volume;
a motion capture processor coupled to said at least one mobile motion capture camera to produce a digital representation of movement of said at least one moving object; and
a camera motion processor coupled to said at least one mobile motion capture camera to track the movement of said at least mobile motion capture camera and to remove the movement in the subsequent processing of captured data to generate said digital representation of movement of said at least one moving object.

24. A system for capturing motion, comprising:
-
at least one mobile motion capture camera configured to be moveable, said at least one mobile motion capture camera operating to capture data representing at least one motion within a motion capture volume; at least one mobile motion capture rig configured to enable said at least one mobile motion capture camera to be disposed on said at least one mobile motion capture rig such that cameras of said at least one mobile motion capture camera can be moved; and a camera motion processor coupled to said at least one mobile motion capture camera to track the movement of said at least one mobile motion capture camera and to remove the movement in subsequent processing of said captured data to generate a digital representation of said at least one motion.

25. A method for capturing motion, comprising:
-
defining a motion capture volume configured to include at least one moving object having markers defining a plurality of points on said at least one moving object; moving at least one mobile motion capture camera within said motion capture volume; tracking the movement of said at least one mobile motion capture camera; and processing data from said at least one mobile motion capture camera to produce a digital representation of movement of said at least one moving object, said processing data including removing said movement of said at least one mobile motion capture camera. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A system for capturing motion, comprising:
-
means for defining a motion capture volume configured to include at least one moving object having markers defining a plurality of points on said at least one moving object; means for moving at least one mobile motion capture camera within said motion capture volume; means for tracking the movement of said at least one mobile motion capture camera; and means for processing data from said at least one mobile motion capture camera to produce a digital representation of movement of said at least one moving object, said means for processing data including means for removing said movement of said at least one mobile motion capture camera.
