I-Pairs Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President: Mamoru Ito) will launch its "Next-Generation Virtual Live Production Service" on July 2, 2026 (Thu), specializing in video production and technical support for projection-based live events using 3D character models.

We offer comprehensive support, from providing the necessary technology and know-how for virtual live events to creating assets, setting up stage equipment, and operating video and audio during the event.

This service is based on the optical motion capture system "OptiTrack" and our proprietary retargeting technology "n-Links Retarget." It enables real-time retargeting (skeleton optimization) and reflection of motion data acquired by optical motion capture onto 3D character models. Live production supporting simultaneous performances of 1 to up to 10 people is possible.

Furthermore, with virtual production technology, we can achieve real-time synthesis of CG character video with live-action backgrounds, or use switcher-based video integration to synthesize and distribute live video in real-time where CG characters and live-action performers co-star.

These technologies expand the possibilities of live performance direction, while also contributing to the efficiency and stability of the production process.

Additionally, in collaboration with Yamaha Corporation's "GPAP," we are developing technology to collectively manage motion, audio, lighting, and lasers within a DAW, enabling flexible modifications and changes to costumes and motion after the performance for subsequent domestic and international shows. We aim to realize a circular production workflow that eliminates the need for post-editing and re-recording.
