New Sensors and cameras supported include:

Tracking improvements of head and hands when used in conjunction with Sony’s PS Move motion controller takes into account joint limits.

Improved individual body parts tracking, after performing initial tracking, allows users to re-do tracking for selected body parts to fix tracking errors more quickly.

Motion can be transferred to a 3D character.

Realtime tracking support of human performance for live preview for a single-depth sensor (Basic and Pro configurations).

iPi Soft is scheduled to bring realtime functionality for multiple depth sensors to users by the end of this year.ĭevelopment of plug-ins for popular 3D game engines, including Unreal Engine and Unity, is also underway.

IPi Mocap Version 4 currently includes the realtime tracking feature for a single depth sensor only. Live tracking results can then be stored to disk for additional offline post processing, such as tracking refinement (to improve tracking accuracy), manual corrections and jitter removal. This allows users to see how the motion will look on a 3D character and improve motion accordingly at the time of acting and recording, without the need to redo multiple iterations of acting, recording and offline tracking. The realtime tracking feature in Version 4 uses iPi Recorder, a free software provided by iPi Soft for capturing, playback and processing video records from multiple cameras and depth sensors, to communicate with iPi Mocap Studio software, which tracks in realtime and instantly transfers motion to 3D characters.

With Version 4, iPi Soft also introduces a perpetual license model.

Other new features and enhancements include support for new depth sensors (Intel RealSense D415/D435, ASUS Xtion2 and Orbbec Astra/ Astra Pro) improved arms and body tracking and support for action cameras such as GoPro and SJCAM. Version 4 includes realtime preview capability for a single-depth sensor. IPi Soft, makers of motion capture technology, has introduced iPi Motion Capture Version 4, the next version of its markerless motion capture software.
