SAN DIEGO, June 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Sony Electronics Inc. ("Sony") announced the launch of mobile motion capture system "mocopi" (QM-SS1) in the U.S. market. "mocopi," with its six small and lightweight sensors and a dedicated smartphone app available for iOS and Android,1 enables full-body motion tracking using Sony's proprietary technologies. Creators can capture their motion data or video of their avatars in motion with the mobile app or send motion data to compatible third-party software in real time, providing users with a new way to interact within virtual reality (VR).

Traditional full-body motion capture systems often require dedicated studios and trained operators. "mocopi", utilizing Sony's unique algorithm, provides accurate motion measurement with only a small number of sensors and a compatible smartphone, which enables users to create content or dive into VR from locations previously deemed impossible, freeing VTubers, creators in film or animation production from time and location constraints.

In addition, "mocopi" Software Development Kit (SDK) is available for major 3D development software such as Unity, MotionBuilder® and Unreal Engine, which lets creators use "mocopi" in their workflows to pursue their creative visions. It allows developers to explore the use of full-body motion data obtained with "mocopi" for various use cases including Metaverse and fitness applications. Sony plans to expand the number of partners that develop services linked to "mocopi".
