"A Vicon system for us really allows us to do an MRI for the golf swing and understand both the kinematics and where that club is moving in space."

    Our new and last blog post from our GDC presentations is now live! Click on the link below to read about the creativity between the speed and accuracy of motion capture. “There’s a lot of subtlety that comes through how we move, we can almost think of the way we move as being a fingerprint in motion,” David ‘Ed’ Edwards, VFX Product Manager for Vicon, told an audience at this year’s GDC. “Motion tells you a lot about a character."
