Vicon debuts new motion capture production software solution

Vicon, a leading developer of Academy Award-winning motion capture systems and part of Oxford Metrics Group plc, has announced the development of a new software package combining the best motion capture functionality based on the industry-leading systems development and motion capture service experience of Vicon and House of Moves.
The product of years of real-world production and engineering, the software provides a single unified and future-looking toolset that supports the growing demands of real-time motion capture, full performance capture, on-set visualisation and makes processing and applying motion capture data for the 3D animation pipeline simpler and more direct than ever before.
“The power and productivity of Vicon MX has made use of motion capture more integral to tackling complex film and game animation production challenges,” said Tom Tolles, Product Manager, Vicon. “This package will be the first to put into one software environment all of the crucial tools to ensure that what you capture is what you deliver. It will be customisable and future-scalable and the first to combine House of Moves’ field expertise and Diva software with the engineering and product minds of Vicon systems and Vicon iQ. In fact, its core functionality has already been pressure-tested at House of Moves and on other large-system projects in the entertainment space.”
