An actress wears a Rokoko SmartSuit for motion capture.

Rokoko’s motion-capture library will be available in Unity Asset Store

Rokoko makes a SmartSuit Pro that captures all of an actor’s movements and turns them into digital motion assets that can be used in games or movies. And today, the company is going to make them much more accessible to game developers by making the Rokoko Motion Capture Library available for purchase in the Unity Asset Store.

Unity Technologies makes the Unity game engine, and developers can purchase pre-made assets in the Unity Asset Store and easily import them for use in games under development. The whole idea is to break down the cost and accessibility barriers for professional motion capture, and that fits with Unity’s mission of democratizing game development for all developers, big and small.
