Capchua introduces "Captury" markerless motion capture (details below), a studio where anyone can easily record high-quality motion without the need for special suits. Furthermore, it is equipped with an OptiTrack optical system, allowing for high-precision recording tailored to various applications.
It will be developed as a new production hub for a wide range of users, from companies to individual creators such as VTubers, across various genres.
New Proposal: "Easy-to-Use"
Based on the knowledge cultivated through years of experience in video production, flapper3 established Capchua with the concept of an "easy-to-use motion capture studio."
In recent years, the demand for motion capture has rapidly increased due to the expansion of virtual live performances and real-time content. However, the current situation is that environments where it can be easily used are limited due to reasons such as the preparation of special suits and markers, the scale of equipment, and the cost and operational burden.
To address these challenges, the studio was designed with the idea of "providing the necessary precision at the necessary scale" according to the application, from small-scale verification to full-scale production.
In addition, sound equipment capable of supporting not only motion recording but also audio recording and live streaming has been introduced. This allows for productions that combine motion and musical expression.

What is Captury?
"Captury" (Manufacturer: DARI Motion, Inc., Headquarters: USA) is software that enables real-time motion capture without the need for suits or markers. It achieves 3D tracking through skeletal recognition by multiple cameras, allowing recording to start immediately just by entering the measurement range. Its characteristic feature is that it has few clothing restrictions, allowing anyone to record natural movements as they are.
