Reproducing High-Quality Action Footage with Unreal Engine 5 and Markerless Motion Capture

MovePro Deployment Case Study Released

AKA Virtual Inc. (Head Office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Jia Shen) is actively promoting the deployment of the AI-based markerless motion capture solution “MovePro” developed by UK-based Move AI Ltd. in the Japanese market. A new case study video has been released showcasing an action sequence created using MovePro and Unreal Engine 5, highlighting the system’s precise motion replication and the creative flexibility afforded by suitless shooting.


[New Possibilities in Production with MovePro]

MovePro is a motion capture technology that reconstructs full-body 3D motion data without suits or markers, using multiple RGB cameras and AI-based analysis. Compared to conventional optical or inertial mocap systems, MovePro offers greater flexibility in studio setup and enables natural motion capture in a wide variety of environments.

The newly released video captures a dynamic sword-fighting scene performed by two actors and renders it at high fidelity using Unreal Engine 5. The result is remarkably smooth and dynamic motion capture—achieved without any motion capture suits.

[Significance as a Case Study]
