You need hands...

Our very own technical manger, Mike 'the Hedge' Hedges is always only too willing to jump into a mocap suit in the name of research. Some speculate he wears one under his normal clothes, just in case. Much like Superman.

This time, the excuse for donning tights was to further test capturing live finger data. Using new velco friendly gloves which ensure the stability of the markers, the results were great!
Capturing finger or 'mitten' data can save a client considerable time and money in post and is one of the many additional services we offer at Centroid over and above full body capture. We can even throw in signed pictures of Mike in a variety of tasteful and artistic poses.
Like a heavily armed mocap gnome.

I really want to see those fingers...
