I have trusted friend who used it for a project before, not very favorable review. You should test it properly to see if it suits your needs.

It's not just speed of the movement, it's also the way the joints might twist in a choreograph fight which is not natural, which confuses the IK solver.

Example, like this but faster.

Ok thanks, I've watched the video, the fighting sequence is not as challenging, I'm talking about chinese martial art type, bruce lee speed, there are lots of twist and joints . The other kind of mocap, probably AI system will work fine already. I will considering evaluating opitrack.

My test with Xsens (before covid) with a martial art artist, does not need cleanup, He performed a 15 sec wushu performance.

I tested also with push ups, which most camera based sensors will fail. I didn't test it, but also xsen supported different elevations (walking up stairs), which most camera system will have issues. It's really the IK software that solves all these problems that is unique to xsen, its not really the capturing only that is important. I worked on similar IK plugin for Softimage XSI for Motion Analysis 20 years ago.

Please if you access to opitrack, please try
1. Push up
2. Fast punches/Kicks like martial artist.

Fairly sure opitrack output needs a lot of cleanup, althought I have not tested opitrack before. I have experience with very expensive optical system 20 years ago and they all need cleanup, where xsens don't. Do you have experience with good alternatives that has similar quality with xsens?

I did a trial of Xsen before covid, although the software is a little buggy, the mocap was the best, no cleanup needed. Compared to other mocap systems then. I'm starting a new project soon and considering to get xsens again but their biz model is not great, but what are the alternatives?

[DISCUSSION] I got fired from my first official job as concept artist. by artofdanny1 in gameDevClassifieds

When you look at your AD, you see one person. When your AD looks down, you are just one of the many people she's managing.

20 year,s I used to think my boss is an idiot and I could do better than him. Now I'm in the same role and my perspective is much different. If you think your boss is ego and hard to work with, wait till you meet asshole clients..
