This paper presents results of research devoted to tracking human arm trajectories in sagittal plane by means of motion capture. One camera tracking system was developed. Co-ordinates of upper limb joints (distincted by light reflecting markers) were obtained via tracking software. Markers were illuminated coaxially to the optical axis of the lens to obtain maximum of reflectivity. Positions, linear velocities and accelerations of a shoulder, elbow, wrist and palm in a sagittal plane were presented. Obtained results in the form of points (in Cartesian co-ordinate system) can be adopted for control of mechanism and robots with kinematics similar to that of a human arm. The obtained results show that in studied biological systems there are no fixed trajectories. All movement co-ordinates (including velocities, accelerations and joints angles) are slightly different for each time selected until movement task is completed. Presented method is relatively inexpensive and noninvasive and can be adopted for other types of motion capture.
