Vicon, developer of motion capture technology, has released Vicon iQ 2.5, the newest version of its motion capture pipeline software. Vicon iQ provides an interface with all of the tools needed to manage, automate, capture and process an entire production. With Version 2.5, Vicon iQ adds features designed specifically for professional production, including a new real-time engine, improved kinematic fitting, lightning-fast labeling, frame-synced SMPTE and EBU timecode video and capture and control of multiple reference video streams in sync with motion capture data. Key Vicon iQ 2.5 features include integration between motion capture and other production requirements, such as hardware-scalable real-time and live reference video on set. Vicon iQ 2.5 support for frame-synced video and embedded timecode speeds the transport of 2D and 3D motion capture data to applications such as Vicon's Diva and Autodesk's MotionBuilder software for the character animation pipeline. In addition, new capabilities in Vicon iQ 2.5 also make it easier for customers with high camera-count Vicon MX systems to save and manage and customize their system setups. Motion capture solutions from Vicon include high-resolution, high-frame-rate cameras built by Vicon specifically for motion tracking.
