vAv2 and CoM

dbbaier edited this page Jul 20, 2026 · 1 revision

CoM or vAv2 are used to separate a single OBJ containing several markers into a group of marker meshes, and to calculates the centroid of each resulting mesh. CoM uses center of mass calculations. vAv2 uses the average position of vertices. CoM is a more robust measure of the center of a marker, but the mesh must be closed (no holes).

Steps

  1. Select the marker object.
  2. Click either Center of Mass(CoM) or Vertex Average(vAv2).

A group of all marker centroids is created with their respective marker mesh as a child of the centroid. CT Marker export2(Ctex2) is immediately opened.
