It would be great if we could have motion-capture studios to capture and translate our movements into virtual worlds. Rokoko Electronics wants to make that happen, and it is unveiling its SmartSuit Pro today for preorders so that professional developers and filmmakers can more easily work with motion capture.

The aim is to break down the cost and accessibility barriers associated with professional-grade motion capture. The Copenhagen, Denmark-based company has created a suit for motion capture actors to wear that allows developers to capture their movements more easily. The SmartSuit Pro starts at $2,245, which is a lot less than other solutions on the market.
