Serious Games Meetup

by | Apr 4, 2017 | Faculty, Staff

seriousgamesmeetup2This week, the Serious Games Meetup Group convenes on Friday, April 7 at 10:30 a.m. in the Media Center TV Studio located on the fourth floor of Lyons Hall. Attendees will explore a new motion capture system.  The Digital Media Arts (DMA) program uses an inexpensive “Mocap” system, a popular toolset among independent game developers. Motion capture is a way of capturing real human motions and mapping them onto virtual avatars. Among many other possibilities, a Mocap system could be used in analysis of an athlete’s performance, kinesiology and physical therapy.

Join us in the Media Center TV studio for this exciting opportunity.
