Thanks. I thought it might be useful to show the processings comparison. Sometimes you have to choose what you think will be easier to fix so it’s good to see the difference.
Ah, you’re too kind. Thank you for the kind words. Always happy to help if I can. Hope the tips in the video help solve your floating floor issue. Also check your body measurements. Sometimes it’s best to use the default measurements the software creates when you input your height and shoe/foot size, rather than adding your own.
@@mocappys Yes, I have been using XSens recently to explore the options within a VFX pipeline, all the way from Motion Builder to Maya and Unreal. Your video gave me a bit more detailed insight about the MVN Software and the setup of the suit, which is great!
Depending on what your budget and final goal is, the MVN system is a great option. For quick set-up and capture it’s hard to beat. Plenty of options for live streaming or processing to skeleton data and a usual mocap pipeline. Good luck with your investigations;)
Hi Mocappys, apart from the full body suit, is it possible to convert motion inertial captured through some Xsens dot single sensors on the main body parts in videos?
thanks a lot for this! It was full of great tips :D I got a bit confused at the end with how the character was characterized and retargeted... is this an issue that comes from Xsens? Do you know if this will get fixed?
It’s just the way retargeting in MotionBuilder works and something you have to be aware of. It can happen with other data so it’s good to know about, but it’s not really anyones fault to fix, if that makes sense.
@@mocappys Okay thanks for you response ! Weight don't matter so much? Recommended weight for XL is 90kg but im 70-75kg , sorry for asking again but maybe it will help some other users too !:)
The fit of the suit is the most important thing. It needs to be tight to stop the sensors wobbling. It might be worth using the smaller size suit to make sure it fits tight. If not, there should be some bands in the kit you can fasten round the sensors to make sure they’re secure. Good question!
I haven't used the Awinda system, so it's hard to say. The pricipals of using an inertial mocap system are the same and the software used is the same, I think, so hopefully there'll be something useful in there for you
@@mocappys Thank you. I watched your video. I got a lot of useful information out of it, especially the tips about how to do calibration. Also, the processing comparisons were real eye openers.
This video has so much valuable information! Especially appreciate the processing comparison.

The Best video about MVN ... Congrats !!
Thanks. Hope it’s useful
Going through this today! Already learning a ton from you...as usual!!
Simon, do you have any tips on when trying to get mocap when sitting cross legged or lying down with this suit. Sometimes I notice I float a little.
Actually just got to the part where you go over these! Wow, you are amazing!

Very nice ! Cheers for this
Very interesting, thank you for this video!
Thanks, Miguel. Are you using the Xsens system?

@@mocappys Thank you, I´ll keep exploring it!

@@mocappys got it
ty for the vid man ! btw, what's size is your suit ? I've bought an XL suit and would like to know if its oversized or undersized, thanks
It's a large. I'm about 5'7"/175cm and wear a large suit.
As a rough guide, large suits cover 170-180cm/5'6”-5'9”. XL suits cover 180-195cm/5'9”-6'4”

Hey buddy Do this with Optitrack suit Also ?
I'd love to, but I don't have an optitrack system...or the space in my house. Maybe one day.
How much of this video is applicable to the Awinda?
I haven't used the Awinda system, so it's hard to say.
The pricipals of using an inertial mocap system are the same and the software used is the same, I think, so hopefully there'll be something useful in there for you
@@mocappys Thank you. I watched your video. I got a lot of useful information out of it, especially the tips about how to do calibration. Also, the processing comparisons were real eye openers.
How much did you pay for it for?
The system in the video was kindly on loan from Xsens.
@@mocappys I don't believe you that you do such an extensive video for a "loan". I think they paid you by giving you the suit.
