What is Mobile Motion Capture?

Mobile motion capture replaces the cameras and shiny balls of traditional motion capture, for worn suits with inbuilt sensors.

The sensors are similar to the ones in your phone and can detect their motion and rotation. Put all the data together and you can track a human’s movements.

Our Mocap Goals

Support growing games studios in East Anglia

Motion capture has been a tool out of reach for most independent and small-scale game studios. We aim to provide services for these game studios at a valuable cost.

Utilise and support community buildings

Mobile motion capture has a small space requirement which allows us to use local to rent buildings for our work. These buildings are low-cost and have the amenities needed for a full-day shoot.

Education about the opportunities of the games industry

Motion capture is a tool not understood by the general public, and we aim to showcase its capabilities and educate companies, students and creative communities. As we educate those that learn about its uses can imagine how they may want to use it to help their creative output.

Offer East Anglia a sustainable mocap solution

Larger scale motion capture studios need large tech heavy equipment and space that without consistent work struggle to stay open. Our model complements the work and cashflow of game studios, meaning we can stay available all year.

Support our game development

We use motion capture in-house for development on our first game, ‘Convicts Collection’

We share our progress on social media if you want to see how we apply our tech to game development.
