WorldViz User Forum - Vizard/Kinect Gesture Reader Code

I'm a beginner to Vizard. I'm trying to write code that will recognize when the user has their right arm in a right angle. I'm using vizmat.AngleBetweenVectors() to try and get the angle between the right shoulder and the right hand. To my mind, if you hold your arm at a right angle, it will read ~90 degrees.
I'm encountering two problems:
1) As I move my arm back and forth, holding it at a right angle, the degrees change.
2) It's not reading 90 degrees.

Here is my code:

Code:

def RightArmAngle():

    RShoulder = vrpn.addTracker('Tracker0@localhost',RIGHTSHOULDER)

    RSpos = RShoulder.getPosition()

    RHand  =vrpn.addTracker('Tracker0@localhost',RIGHTHAND)

    RHpos = RHand.getPosition()

    RHvec = viz.Vector(RHand.getPosition(),normalize = True)

    RSvec = viz.Vector(RShoulder.getPosition(),normalize = True)

    RAVector=vizmat.AngleBetweenVector(RSvec,RHvec)#RAVector and RAAngle return the same value

    RAAngle = vizmat.AngleBetweenVector(RSpos,RHvec)

    

    print("r elbow:",RHvec)

    print("r shoulder:",RSvec)

    

    print("position Angle:", RAAngle, "vs RAVector",RAVector)

    print("new")

    

    

vizact.ontimer(1,RightArmAngle)

Here are some diagrams and my outputs:

Attachment 694
Raised Arm, Turned to Side. Vector Returned: ~31
Attachment 692
Right-Angled Arm, Held in Front, Vector Returned: ~23
Attachment 693
Right-Angled Arm, Held to Side, Vector Returned: ~16

I'm confused as to how thought this would be a simple way. Should I try to make a triangle instead? Or should I just be returning one Euler value and finding the angle from that?
