We often get asked where motion capture goes next. This is a pretty compelling answer... CoSTAR Live Lab, partnered with Yorkshire singer-songwriter Marnie Glum, the University of York, XR Stories and XR Network+, and AudioLab York, have shared a behind-the-scenes look at their landmark live music experiment, the very first of its kind. ✨ Seeing Vicon motion capture used to track performers across four different locations, rendered in real-time in a shared virtual environment, is exactly the kind of forward-thinking innovation we love to be part of. What a landmark project! Check it out below 👇 #Vicon #MotionCapture #LiveMusic #XR #FutureOfPerformance

Epic to see Vicon motion capture playing a small role in such a huge success. adidas’ short documentary 'Chasing Sub 2' captures the relentless pursuit of the impossible, from early breakthroughs to the data‑driven insights, including mocap, that shaped Sabastian Sawe’s sub‑two‑hour marathon. A decade of ambition distilled into one defining moment.🎖️ You can watch the brilliant film here: https://lnkd.in/e9iVfHSD

After weeks of hard work from the teams at the AudioLab York, XR Stories and XR Network+ and CoSTAR Live Lab, we were able to deliver a truly unique networked music performance to a live audience this April. Next week we'll be releasing a mini documentary showing all of the great work that went on across our team to deliver this performance - keep your eyes peeled! This was a monumental effort from our team and was brought to life by a fantastic performance from Marnie Glum!

The System Health Panel shipped in Shōgun 1.19 last month. It's not flashy. But across most Shōgun operator conversations I've had this past year, it's the feature that truly shines. Built for high-pressure Virtual Production stages, it centralises the metrics that matter most: latency, centroid connectivity, calibration status, and tracking quality. Incremental improvements like this one don't make headlines. But they make operators' lives genuinely easier, and that's what builds trust over time. A well-deserved shoutout to Connor Shellis for the video below.
