Dr. Robert L. Appelman, Clinical Associate Professor of Instructional Systems Technology, at the Indiana University School of Education
"It’s a huge jump forward to walk into the Stage system without any tracking balls or specialized equipment. That alone makes it easy for us to integrate it into a number of programs."
Dr. Luis Unzueta Irurtia, Researcher, Intelligent Transport Systems and Engineering
"The Stage system is awesome! I'm still amazed with it. It works like a charm. It's true magic. I'm really happy with it, and I tell you this after having used most of the traditional marker based systems and worked on markerless motion capture in my PhD. We'll make a lot of use of it."
James Oliverio, Digital Worlds Institute Director and Professor of Digital Arts & Sciences, University of Florida
"We’re using Organic Motion’s technology as a portal into a virtual reality, not simply as an animation tool."
Marla Schweppe, Chair of 3D Digital Graphics, in RIT’s College of Imaging Arts, Sciences School of Design
"Removing the complications of a bodysuit is a huge plus, because we don’t have to worry about different body sizes, calibration times, extra technicians or even the cost and labor of cleaning the suits after each user."
Dr. Jack Smith, Senior Research Scientist, Marshall University
"Practically anyone can walk into the system and experience a virtual mine, regardless of preparation or technology background. This is critical when working with participants where even a keyboard and mouse could be a barrier."
Carl Berg, Superintendent, Tolles Career & Technical Center
"This technology lets students analyze exercise movements and stress injuries in its most organic state—free from body suits."
Patrick Moodie, President, Dynamic Athletics Research Institute
"Getting the most accurate information to evaluate athletes, is not just about tracking, but also creating a natural environment for the athlete. Taking markers out of the equation exponentially speeds up the process and makes this even possible. Organic Motion’s markerless system, takes away all of the setup time needed to get an athlete ready for a capture session.
At DARI, we can put the athlete in the system, and in seconds, start looking at pin-point movements, and begin to identify any changes in specific motions. We are giving trainers, coaches and athletes game-changing information to keep them at the top of their game!"
Adrian Hill, CTO, Classics Animated
"I have been in the animation market too long to be easily impressed by new technologies. I was stunned by how fast the system acquired and tracked performers; together with the quality of tracking data made it a very simple decision to buy. We are planning to use the system in all of our upcoming animation film projects.
With Organic Motion we are able to create quality animation for our secondary characters at significantly lower cost than regular animation techniques.
The very fast acquisition/capture cycle allows animators to capture their own reference key poses in 3D to speed up traditional keyframe animation. This is especially useful when working with something precise like sword fighting that you might not want captured in real-time for safety reasons."
Justin Rattner, CTO, Intel Corporation
"The Organic Motion technology…has far-reaching applications in the consumer and enterprise market segments."
Kamal Siegel, Chief Executive Artist & Owner, Digital Double
"Stage is the strategic component to give our services a strong competitive advantage.
One of the things we have done with Stage was to add a swing, overhead rings, a ladder and we easily captured suspended motion to great effect.
We have increased our outsourced services business with Stage, to local game developers and even to client overseas."
