How to optimize your mocap process with Xsens

Doing motion capture traditional way

Planning a motion capture shoot can be a complex and tedious job. Depending on your requirements, it could take quite some timeand effortto prepare before you can start recording.

Typically, a motion capture shoot involves:

  1. Booking studio space

  1. Setting up a team of technicians

  1. Hiring actors or stuntmen

  1. Checking and preparing the hardware

  1. Updating the software

As there are multiple people and resources involved, itcan take a week, sometimes even more before you can capture any data.

Moreover, not all studios have the luxury to use their own internal stage;they choose to outsource the motion captureprocess,which takes even more time and resources. Also, with outsourcing, you have less control over the outcome, if you need to redo certain shorts, the process starts over. This can lead to delays and added frustration.

What if you could capture instantly, with minimal setup, all by yourself?

No more data cleanup

One major frustration for animators is having to clean the motion data. Typically, there are many flaws in the recorded data, and it takes a lot of time to correct them. With Xsens you do not need to cleanup anymore. Once you have recorded the data in Xsens' proprietary software (Xsens Animate), the HD Reprocessor does the clean up for you!

You can simply export high-quality data directly into your animation pipeline. We integrate seamlessly with all the popular animation software such as Unreal Engine, Unity 3D, Blender and Maya.
