An App to Capture Upper Body Motion Data With 2 Webcams

MocapForStreamer allows capturing upper body, hands, and facial expressions without expensive equipment.

If you'd like to be a VTuber or are just curious about motion capture but can't afford expensive equipment like Xsens, MocapForStreamer is here for you. Developed by Akiya Research Institute, it requires 2 webcams and a mid-range PC to capture the upper body, hands, and facial expressions.

Your two webcams need to be of the same model to create something like a stereo camera, and that's about all you need aside from a Windows 10 OS. Just place your cams side by side, about 20-30 cm apart, calibrate them, and you're ready to go.

Akiya Research Institute has also developed MocapForAll – a similar tool for full-body capturing. It can use more cameras without model restrictions.

MocapForStreamer will be released on July 8. The developers recommend trying the demo before buying the full version. Read more about the app here, find the demo here, and wishlist the program on Steam.
