Abstract
There is no doubt that a motorboat driver's motion during its turn has a large influence in its speed and stability. Nevertheless, this mechanism has not yet been solved. In this paper, we present a novel system to analyze three dimensional motion of a driver based upon three dimensional measurement with multiple CCD cameras. Using this system, we can calculate the centre of gravity and moment of inertia of a motorboat driver in its turn.
