Move AI is an award-winning technology company that enables motion capture in any environment using off-the-shelf cameras, mobile phones, computer vision and deep learning.

Lifelike human movement is a crucial part of making 3D animation feel real. However, digitising human movement is slow and expensive, requiring $10,000s-$1,000,000s to hand-animate each frame or using a special suit and studio. Move AI is launching an app and API that makes this 50x-1000x cheaper and faster using AI, which will push the boundaries of how movement is used in spatial computing in ways we can’t yet imagine.
