Setting up your own desktop face motion capture studio has never been easier.
The Expression Foundation Package includes all the building blocks of an advanced optical motion capture system. It is ready to capture natural human face motion right out of the box.
NaturalPoint has built the Expression Foundation Package so that a single person can easily operate the system while capturing their own motion, creating endless possibilities in both the garage and the studio.
The Expression Foundation Package is perfect for professionals and amateurs working in FaceRobot, MotionBuilder or DAZ Studio.
The easy-to-use ARENA Expression motion capture software lets a single user create advanced motion capture sequences of face movement, work with the data, stream in real-time to popular 3D software, and export industry standard C3D into applications such as FaceRobot, MotionBuilder and DAZ Studio. Built-in support for recording scene video provide valuable feedback and a great tool when editing in post.
With the Expression Foundation Package, individuals now have powerful motion capture tools that used to be considered so expensive they had to be shared or rented. Own your own desktop face motion capture studio for under $6K and capture your vision.
Videos and data samples are available in the video gallery.
