The new streamlined Gypsy5 is more
flexible than ever before. Exo-skeleton spine units have been removed and replaced with an additional inertial gyroscope giving the actor much greater freedom of movement.   This new system is sleek, lightweight and remains the most affordable full body motion capture system available. A great tool for animators, educators and researchers on a budget, ideal for teaching the concept of motion capture, it's usage in animation and human movement analysis. Now with new automatic actor-calibration software.

Now with 37 potentiometer sensors and 2 inertial gyroscopes placed around 17 human joints, the Gypsy system accurately records the rotational motion of the actor's bones.
