Member Spotlight: VR has legs!
It’s been a busy time for Animotive who announced two new exciting capabilities in their real-time VR virtual production platform for game developers, educators, and creators.
First they introduced AI Legs, a new full-body motion capture breakthrough. This is AI-Enhanced VR Tracking, using only a VR headset and two controllers - no suits, no trackers, no cameras, no long calibration cycles.
“Step in, perform, and let our AI predict and reconstruct natural motion from just three tracked points. Faster pipelines, dynamic character performances, cinematics, and hands-on virtual production for students. Developed in collaboration with Ulster University, Abertay University, and the NVIDIA Inception program.”

Second, they’ve announced full Vicon support – “bringing industry-leading mocap hardware directly into the Animotive workflow”
“You can stream your Vicon output straight into Animotive and use it for your capture, retargeting, or even just giving your actors real-time spatial awareness while using your existing Vicon workflow. This unlocks multi-level tracking and gives creators access to the highest level of spatial truth, meaning your body, movement, and virtual character stay perfectly aligned for the most immersive VR mocap experience possible.”
