Square Enix moves 44 Vicons
 16 January 2006

VICON announces the installation of a 44-camera VICON MX40 system for facial, hand and full-body capture to game company Square Enix. The Company has adopted the system to take advantage of the immediate performance gains of VICON MX when recording actors for cinematic sequences and in-game play, and to support higher camera counts and complexity for motion capture on next-gen titles.


Square Enix has created such popular game franchises as ‘Final Fantasy’ and ‘Dragon Quest’, has been an experienced motion capture user for many years. The decision to move to the VICON MX system comes after they determined the VICON MX40 system to be far superior when compared with their former motion capture system.

n addition to overall system performance and robustness, the purchase decision was also based on VICON's product support, professionalism, and the level of accessibility and service from the regional team.

S ituated in Tokyo, Japan, Square Enix Co., Ltd. develops, publishes and distributes entertainment content including interactive entertainment software and publications in Japan, United States, Europe and Asia.
