Total Brain Fart guys ! I heard the name of this device once , and cant remember it for the life of me. The suit worn on a person that copies there movements and converts the moves into animation squences that CG Animators use to get fluid movements in Games and CG movies. What is that suit called ? What programs work with it ? and How much does it cost ? Thanks guys !

As far as I know it is called a motion capture suit. Most of them have specific programs that work within their system. And for cost, I think LOTS is a good start :) You have to have the suit, and then the 3D tracking system plus the software. Look for motion capture on google, you'll find a lot of links. - Noel

There's also the Gypsy mo-cap system, which is at the link above. Perhaps that's the name you were thinking of? It costs under 20K, and it's captured data can be used by most major 3D software.Tools : 3dsmax 2015, Daz Studio 4.6, PoserPro 2012, Blender
v2.74
System: Pentium QuadCore i7, under Win 8, GeForce GTX 780 / 2GB
