Sony Electronics has announced the launch of XYN Motion Studio, a PC application which supports connections with 12 “mocopi” sensors and utilises Sony’s proprietary algorithms for automatic motion interpolation and auto-tagging functions, that enhances and streamlines the creative use of motion data.
The mobile motion capture system “mocopi” launched in 2023, uses Sony algorithms to achieve high-precision motion measurement with only six small and lightweight sensors connected to a smartphone app. The new XYN Motion Studio builds on the advantages of “mocopi”, such as studio- or suits-free motion capture, enhancing precision through connections with 12 sensors via dedicated sensor data receivers for direct connection with a PC (professional mode).
The application also adds new functions such as editing of motion data, making motion capture more accessible to a wider range of creators in various genres, who have previously faced high costs and equipment hurdles.
With the launch of XYN Motion Studio, Sony also offers bands for attaching additional sensors to both arms, thighs, and hands (or feet). Additionally, the existing “mocopi” PC application will be updated to support direct connections between 12 “mocopi” sensors and a PC via the new receiver.
XYN Motion Studio also takes advantage of proprietary algorithms to enable new features such as motion data editing, automatic motion interpolation that generates natural motion data connecting different motions, and automatic tagging of motion data uploaded to the cloud which enables text-based searching.
