In particular, iPi Motion Capture 3.0 is now intended to capture and track a performer’s legs and arms faster and better. The calibration process has also been simplified, allowing motion-capture beginners to use the tool more quickly and obtain high-quality MoCap data.
In addition, the user interface has been redesigned. With regard to Kinect 2 support, several expansions are planned in the near future: These include recording from multiple Kinects simultaneously on different PCs, support for up to 12 cameras, and tracking up to three actors at the same time.
There is also a new payment model with the option of a one-year subscription or the ability to rent the tool for three months for a specific project period.
iPi Motion Capture is available in three different software versions: Express, Basic, and Pro. Depending on the version, the tools cost between 45 and 1,195 US dollars. An overview of the features of the individual versions can be found here. Customers who purchased version 2 of iPi after July 1 receive a free one-year upgrade.
