RADiCAL offers Escape Studios students FREE Account Upgrade for RADiCAL's MOCAP Smartphone App

Escape Studios have teamed up with RADiCAL, a new provider of smartphone driven motion capture, to give our students free Producer accounts.

You can find RADiCAL at https://getrad.co, where they offer users a new AI driven bipedal motion capture system that our students can now run from their Smartphones.

What is RADiCAL?
RADiCAL is a platform to create, share and explore AI-powered 3D animation.

Until recently, Motion Capture tools have been expensive and cumbersome, requiring a major hardware investment to get up and running. But all this is changing.

At the center of RADiCAL’s stack sits proprietary motion capture software. The AI detects and reconstructs human motion in full 3D & 6DOF from conventional 2D videos recorded on consumer cameras.

To see more, here is a preview of what RADiCAL technology looks like.

How does RADiCAL work?

All motion is available through FBX files that can be downloaded into any 3D pipeline.  If you’re looking for inspiration, the RADiCAL community is made up of tens of thousands of creators in game development, AR, VR, film and TV. The community shares thousands of scans publicly every month.
