Even once you have gone through the expense of building or renting a mocap stage, you still need an experienced team of experts to wrangle the data captured system often gets confused about the data it is processing. Motion capture requires many cameras recording a larger number of sensors on an actor, a stage with very controlled, even lighting, and a tremendous amount of data. Traditional optical motion capture can yield some amazing storytelling moments-the most famous being Gollum from the original Lord of the Rings-but it is a cumbersome and complicated process. This could open up motion capture for music videos and independent films in a way that has never been possible before.
#Motion capture suit pro
The result of their collaboration launches today, with the Smartsuit Pro available to the public for $2,495. Matias Søndergaard was working for a 3D printing company when Baslev, who had a filmmaking background, pitched him his idea: to revolutionize motion capture by building a suit that is easy to use, cost-effective, and sets filmmakers free from the studio. Jakob Baslev didn't take up badminton for professional networking, but when he went looking for a technical partner to bring his vision to life, he found what he was looking for in his local shuttlecock league. Danish firm Rokoko built the Smartsuit Pro, an affordable, easy-to-use solution for motion capture.
