We record and use tracking data from Kinect 2 sensors. The data are used for:
- Detecting number of actors
- Detecting actor heights
- Detecting T-Poses and creation of takes
- Setting initial pose for detected T-poses
- Setting inital pose for first frame of Region-of-Interest
- Warning on presense of people in sensor view during background recording
Recording Sensor Tracking Data
iPi Recorder records tracking data provided by depth sensor for further use in iPi Mocap Studio.

To make the most of sensors' tracking data, please follow this recommendations during recording:
- Strike T-Pose before each take
- You have to stay in T-Pose at least for one second
- Face first sensor in T-Pose
- If you have several actors, each of them should face first sensor
