3D Motion Capture System Market Analysis

Also termed as mo-cap, 3D motions capture technology records moving humans or objects in 3 dimensions, and this procedure encompasses installing markers or sensors on crucial places of a subject’s body, which are subsequently recorded by a channel of sensors or cameras placed throughout the ambience. The most likely use of motion picture technology is animation in the entertainment sector, and presently, the procedures are used to track the motion of actors and imitate it in 3D models created digitally, and this makes it likely for video games and cartoons to be as accurate as possible. Worldwide, the animation workforce registered an annual expansion of 4% from 2018 to 2023, with anticipations to grow to 2.5 million jobs by 2027. The M&E sector has been steadily recuperating from the pandemic, with worldwide revenue from music performances and cinema box office increasing year-on-year in 2023 by 26% and 30.4%. The live events signified 39% of the total upsurge in M&E investment in 2023. In 2021, the total copyright sector added USD 2.9 trillion dollars to the United States economy and employed around 16 million workers. The growing entertainment sector is one of the significant growth factors of the 3D Motion Capture System market size. Vicon Motion Systems Limited, Qualisys AB and Motion Analysis Corporation are significant manufacturers in the global market for 3D Motion Capture Systems.

Analyst’s Observation on Japan 3D Motion Capture System Market Survey

Japan is identified as a world leader in VR/AR technology and has initiated the advancement of gaming software and hardware over several years. Until now, AR/VR technology has largely been applied in Japan for entertaining purposes. In the upcoming years, it is anticipated that technologies will be used in a wide variety of industries, including tourism, retail, medicine and manufacturing. The adoption of 5th-generation wireless technology, robust government support and an expanded range of uses for VR/AR technologies will propel the growth of the 3D motion capture system market size. The VR/AR-related market investment in Japan has increased from USD 1.29 billion in 2018 to USD 1.78 billion in 2023. The incorporation of mocap technology with AR and VR applications is one of the significant growth factors of the 3D motion capture system market size. Nobby Tech Ltd and STT Systems are some of the significant manufacturers in the Japanese 3D Motion Capture System market.

3D Motion Capture System Market Growth Driver

Rapid emergence of smart technologies:

The application of motion capture is prevalent in sports that need a high level of accuracy, hypothetically, the human motion capture of any athlete is used for any kind of sport where the athletes are supposed to perform above water. Presently, it is most applicable for ball sports such as soccer, and several Olympic athletes train at centres that encompass artificial intelligence and motion capture in their performance. Motion capture shows absolutely how an athlete is moving his/her limbs and offers a comprehensive investigation of your muscle activity. Practitioners of physical rehabilitation apply motion capture to rapidly and precisely recognize prescribed weaknesses and recommend motions to improve them. The application of ICT in the sports field has been increasing lately globally. For instance, Fujitsu is advancing a judging support system dependent on 3D sensing technology in association with the International Gymnastics Federation and Japan Gymnastics Association.

Market Restraint

Complicated set up & operation

Operation and setup complexity is another significant difficulty when it comes to the 3D motion capture market. The technique often requires appropriate standardization of many sensors and cameras to ensure precise data acquisition, which is strictly challenging and time-consuming. Even modest faults in setup result in useless or erroneous information demanding delays and changes.

3D Motion Capture System Market Regional Synopsis

North America dominates the 3D motion capture system due to the growing healthcare sector. Mocap systems provide valuable uses in the healthcare sector for rehabilitation monitoring. In the United States, around 30 million teens and children participate in some kind of organized sports and more than 3.5 million injuries every year, which leads to some damage of participation time, are experienced by the participants. Increased sports activities are another growth driver of the 3D motion capture system in North America. As of 2023, it has been found that around 22.4% of men in the United States participate in sports.

The Asia Pacific is expected to grow the fastest due to the expansion of the China Film Administration. According to the China Film Administration, the whole box office of 2023 has reached USD 7.73 billion. In 2023, 971 films were produced, with 792 titles being dramas and apart from 2312 silver screens were newly established in urban cinemas. Further, the increase in the ageing population of China is another growth driver of the 3D motion capture system market. By 2050, 1 in 4 people will be over 60, and it will triple between 2010 and 2050, reaching 1.3 billion people.
