Wonder Works Inc. Launches Virtual Production Platform 'CamSpace 3 Essential' for VTubers in Japan

Wonder Works Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Tetsuo Okuda) announces the launch of 'CamSpace 3 Essential' and 'CamSpace 3 Essential + Red Pill Go' in Japan through a partnership with Zukunft Works Ltd. These professional production platforms are designed for VTubers, live streamers, and virtual content creators.

Built on Unreal Engine, this full-featured virtual production environment is now accessible to individual creators and small teams. It supports camera tracking using an iPhone and the CamVerse app, and 'CamSpace 3 Essential + Red Pill Go' enables motion capture of virtual characters using a standard webcam.

Japan is a globally significant market in the fields of VTuber culture and virtual entertainment. The scope of VTuber activities—such as live streaming, music performances, video production, and fan engagement—continues to expand annually. Consequently, audience expectations for video quality and production sophistication are rising.

However, until now, individual creators and small teams often faced challenges in building professional virtual production environments due to the need for expensive equipment, complex setup processes, and specialized technical knowledge.

CamSpace 3 Essential was developed to address these challenges. It is a virtual production environment based on Unreal Engine that captures real-world camera movement and position data using an iPhone and the CamVerse app, then transmits this data to CamSpace running on a PC, enabling realistic camera work within virtual spaces.

Furthermore, the higher-tier 'CamSpace 3 Essential + Red Pill Go' integrates a standard webcam, Red Pill Go, and CamSpace to enable motion capture for virtual characters. For fixed-camera VTuber streaming or recording, this setup allows creators to build a motion capture environment using just a webcam and Red Pill Go. By combining this with the iPhone and CamVerse app, creators can also achieve dynamic productions that integrate camera tracking.

CamSpace integrates essential virtual production features, including high-quality real-time rendering powered by Unreal Engine, virtual cameras, scene creation, chroma key compositing, video output via NDI/Spout, and GLTF/GLB model import. It provides a production environment that enables individual VTubers, streamers, virtual performers, and small production teams to achieve the high-end visual expressions previously only possible in professional studio environments—now with a more accessible setup.

CamSpace 3 Essential

CamSpace 3 Essential is a virtual production environment based on Unreal Engine, designed for individual creators, small studios, and growing VTuber teams.

By using an iPhone and the CamVerse app to capture real camera movement and position data, and transmitting this data to CamSpace running on a PC, it enables camera tracking within virtual spaces. This allows for more immersive virtual video production, incorporating three-dimensional camera movements such as dolly, crane, and handheld shots—going beyond fixed viewpoints.

【Main Features】

Camera Tracking via iPhone and CamVerse App

Real camera movement and position data captured by the iPhone are transmitted to CamSpace and reflected in the virtual camera work.

High-Quality Visuals via Unreal Engine

Leveraging Unreal Engine—used in AAA games and film production—CamSpace delivers cinematic 3D environments and high-quality real-time rendering.

Free-D Camera Tracking Support

Real-time reflection of physical camera movements into virtual scenes, enabling synchronized real and virtual camera work.

Virtual Camera Mode

Even without camera tracking hardware, users can simulate lens focal length, camera settings, and movement paths to design cinematic camera work within virtual spaces.

GLTF/GLB Model Import

Import 3D models, backgrounds, props, and AI-generated assets to flexibly build custom virtual environments.

Intuitive Chroma Key Compositing

Achieve stable green screen compositing through a simple interface, supporting natural integration between virtual and real elements.

NDI/Spout Support

Supports NDI and Spout for high-quality video transmission over networks and seamless integration with external software.

USB Video Capture Support

Compatible with various video devices, enabling multi-camera setups and real-time compositing for advanced production.

Simple Workflow for Rapid Production Start

Pre-sets and intuitive operation flows minimize complex engineering tasks, allowing smooth preparation for production and streaming.

Pricing: ¥29,800/year or ¥2,980/month (tax included)

※CamSpace 3 Essential alone does not support body tracking or motion capture for virtual characters. CamSpace 3 Essential + Red Pill Go is required for motion capture functionality.

CamSpace 3 Essential + Red Pill Go

CamSpace 3 Essential + Red Pill Go is a motion-capture-enabled configuration designed for VTubers, combining CamSpace 3 Essential with Red Pill Go.

By integrating a standard webcam, Red Pill Go, and CamSpace, it enables motion capture for virtual characters. For fixed-camera streaming or recording, creators can capture character movements using a webcam-centric setup. By also using the iPhone and CamVerse app, they can combine this with camera tracking for more dynamic virtual productions.

With the ability to reflect full-body and upper-body movements and gestures onto virtual characters, VTubers and virtual performers can deliver more natural and expressive performances during audience interaction. It also supports lip-sync via microphone input, supporting streaming and recording that combines voice and character expression.
