The interaction between a large freely floating articulated structure and regular waves is investigated by model tests based on the computer vision target tracking approach. The detailed description of the experimental setup and measurement techniques are presented. Tests are conducted on a wave flume to provide a benchmark of comparison and establish some of the limitations of the measuring method presented herein. Further, the vertical displacement of the freely floating interconnected structure for different wave periods is registered using the presented technique, showing the usefulness of the method within the hydroelasticity framework.
