Hello Awesome People!
We're happy to announce that a special Animaze update is out on the "Next-Version" beta branch featuring enhanced support for the Sony mocopi® sensor and more. You can now enjoy fast, accurate body motions in both full-body and upper-body modes, overcoming the typical limitations of video-based body tracking.
Just in case you need a reminder on how to navigate Animaze beta branches, here it is: https://www.animaze.us/faq/animazedesktop/navigatebranches
Additionally, we're thrilled to share that Animaze is now an official partner of Sony mocopi!
Here is where you can read more about Sony mocopi.

Here is the “Developer talk live” broadcast (only in Japanese):
Here is a video on how to connect the mocopi app to Animaze PC.
This is for now an unlisted video. It will go live on our main channel when the current build on next-version also makes it to the live branch.
If you have multiple network adapters (real or virtual), you may need to use Windows tools like ipconfig to find your PC's correct IP address, instead of simply copying over the autodetected one. Also, ensure to allow the connection in your firewall settings.
Changelog:
- added a smoothing option to chase camera mode (F2) for improving full-body filming control,
- added an animation mirror and a smoothing option to the Sony mocopi tracker, useful if you want to Left-Right mirror your body motion capture data, but don’t want to mirror any writing or branding that you might have on your avatar.
- fixed a bug where Sony mocopi implementation reported an initialization error when the local IP has changed between sessions,
- fixed a bug where some trackers were not properly reporting the tracking frequency,
- fixed a bug specific to Tobii eye tracker 4C not properly initializing,
- fixed a bug with VRM tail tips not showing properly,
- fixed a bug where the import button was not being shown on the standalone version,
- fixed a bug where the Manage Subscription button was not being shown,
- various aesthetic changes to the Sony mocopi tracker UI
