In this paper, a technique of motion capturing using digital video (DV) cameras was proposed to measure the time dependent changes of human posture. This system was consisted of several-couples of the DV camera and the small computer which transfer the digital image frames, the shape extractors and the reconstruction server. The advantage of this dispersed system is that the human posture measurement in the crowded chamber is possible by addition of the DV cameras. The result of calibration measurement revealed the system has good ability of spatial recognition.
