The Eight Generals dance troupe showcased their four-directional movements through optical motion capture. Painted performers, impersonating Gan, Liu, Xie, and Fan, plus the Four Seasons God, brought characters to life in a celebration parade. As the guardian team for Lord God, they are an essential part of Taiwan's intangible cultural heritage, blending significant religious and performing arts traditions. This study utilized optical motion capture technology to record their actions digitally, translating their performances into digital information.
