Motion capture


The process of recording 3D movement (position, rotation, acceleration) of people and objects with the purpose of generating a 3D reconstruction of an event, happening, movement or performance. Motion capture is customized for a wide range of applications and industries from animation and entertainment to medicine and sports. Over the years, the systems and technologies that enable motion capture became more advanced and sophisticated, allowing for increased precision in motion rendering.
