Quote - Sure will.  By the way what kind of motions do people want to capture?  How do you intend to use the motions for?  Anyone interested in facial capture also?

What I'm most interested in is purchasing your software when you're done and setting up an inexpensive system of my own.

The problem with "canned" motion capture moves-for-sale are that it's hard to find exactly what you're looking for when you need it. I have limited use for dance moves or fighting/kung fu moves, which seems to get all the attention from mocap vendors.

What I really need are little ambient things that nobody ever thinks to sell. A few years ago, for instance, I was on the lookout for a simple walk and 180 degree turn around. Couldn't find a good one anywhere.

So I hope you make your system available for sale at a reasonable price. I'll be first in line to purchase it.

And, yes, facial animation would be fun, but please get the full body mocap finished first, since that's where the real need is in the marketplace.

Great work!
