Mokka is a great graphical user interface to see your markers in 3D. For processing your data, you can use BTK (Biomechanical Toolkit), in conjunction with Octave (a free Matlab-like environment). Personally I use BTK and Matlab, but if I could not have access to Matlab, Octave would be the natural way to go.
Thank you very much for your answers. I will actually be going through all these suggestions.
I have actually seen a proprietary japanese piece of software that does exactly what I need. After videos are imported, calibrated and synchronized, you place markers and/or lines on everything you need to measure and manually digitize frame by frame. Everything is ready-made, so there is no need for programming.
Is there anything like this available for free/open source?
If I choose Octave/Matlab and BTK, will there be programming involved? I am looking to avoid that if possible.
Nikolaos : Indeed, BTK and Octave/Matlab involve programming. Moreover, I didn't realize you use standard video cameras and not a motion capture system. I don't think BTK has a straightforward way to work with video images. I'm curious to know about the proprietary japanese software you talk about.
I was going to suggest a really cool (and FREE) program called Blender (home page at http://www.blender.org), however after scanning their latest motion tracking documentation (http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Motion_Tracking) it may not have exactly what you need. Still, I've found Blender quite useful for developing animations. Go have a look-see.
I also tried Blender, but it did not seem really useful for what I want to do, as it is a more animation production oriented program. Thanks for the suggestion anyway!
@Félix Chénier, The Japanese piece of software is called Frame-DIAS. Here is the website:
So, I ended up using SkillSpector, and it works fine for me. Great, free option. I couldn't get it running until I installed this -quite old- Canopus DV Codec:
