![]() Today, the market is already packed with different varieties of AI mocap tools ( Deepmotion, Plask, and Kinetix, just to name a few). Move.ai is not a breakthrough invention, even if they claim their patented machine-learning software is unique. Starting this month, everyone can try out this technology for couple of minutes after signing up. The feedback from beta testers has been positive so far. According to the company website, this tool is able to track pose, gait, root motion, and even the mannerisms of any age or body type. What if you could capture motion at a fraction of the cost of traditional studios – no suits, using mobile phones and off-the-shelf cameras, and still get the same high-fidelity results? Move.ai claims to offer exactly that, once they fully release their AI-based markerless technology. Image credit: the official Avatar Youtube channel, Century Studios. Behind-the-scenes from “Avatar: The Way of Water”. An example of the conventional motion capture suit. Well, seems that there is another way now, which should put a fat check on this industry injustice. Such hardware is incredibly expensive going up to hundreds of thousands of dollars. A motion capture suit helps to record human acting and to track body motion for further animation processes. If you have ever observed behind-the-scenes of any film using a CGI character then you are familiar with the concept of a tight black suit covering every inch of an actor’s body while they impersonate an imaginary Gollum, say. How so, you ask? Let’s talk about motion capture with AI – a zero-cost way to start animating from scratch. Let’s stick with the latter, shall we? Apart from creating artistic mood boards within minutes and enhancing concept ideas, neural networks can also massively simplify your previsualization and animation processes. We can either despise new technology or see it as a helping hand. “I need your clothes, your boots, and your motorcycle… Wait, and also your motion capture suit!” It seems spooky yet it’s undeniable: artificial intelligence tools have been growing and evolving at breakneck speed. keyboard_arrow_rightCameras of the Year.keyboard_arrow_rightGear Guides by Type.keyboard_arrow_rightGear Guides by Budget.
