Abstract(in English) In this paper, we reproduce a human bone structure truthfully by measuring inside of the subject's body by MRI. In addition, we achieve more accurate human body motions using the 3D distance data captured by Motion Capture System and the data obtained from MRI. We construct a human body model from the bone data obtained by photo data of MRI. And then, we place markers by one-to-one correspondence virtually on the skin of the human body model when capturing the data by Motion Capture System. Though Joint positions have been decided by the rule of the bone construction that is defined from the position of the Motion Capture markers, achieving this technique makes subject's joint and bone positions possible to adjust his or her own positions. Moreover, we verify the transition of positional relationships between skins and bones while the human is moving.
