Dear all,

        I must firstly apologise for not responding earlier, and secondly
apologise for not following the email list protocol.  I was unaware
of the courtesy to reply with a summary of content found relating to
the topic.

        In regards a motion capture system for aquatic purposes (dive start
for competitive swimming) I have found minimal information although I
have had a few leads that may be worth following.

I received an email from Todd Allinger who referred me to the
Principal Engineer for the US Olympic Committee, Tom Westenburg
e-mail: twestenburg@usoc.org
I was very optimistic with this lead as Todd stated that they were
using a system exactly parallel for that which I was after.  However,
I have not received anything back yet.

The only other lead that I have is in regards the motion capture
system produced by motion analysis capture companies.  An email was
posted to the list by Masaaki Mochimaru about an upcoming Comparison
Meeting of Motion Analysis System's, and the following internet
address was provided:

        http://www.aist.go.jp/NIBH/ourpages/comparison99/comp99.html

An email address was also supplied:

        Masaaki Mochimaru <mmochimaru@NIBH.GO.JP>

The internet addresses given were handy in that they give parameters
of the equipment requirements, together with visual information and
links to other sites regarding motion capture systems.

I did not find anything that I thought could be specifically taken
immediately and used for motion analysis of the dive start in
competitive swimming.
