VII. MOTION CLOUD
The motion cloud is a centralized repository for all motion capture mediums: animation suits, smartphones, inertial measurement units, pedometers, etc. The online repository can be powered by any cloud service (e.g. Microsoft Azure) and can accommodate thousands of devices recording simultaneously. Because of its cross-platform capabilities, the motion cloud can also be used as a gateway between smartphones, computers and tablets. For example, motion captured on a handheld device can be opened using a desktop version of our motion capture software environment. Likewise, a commercial inertial suits data, that was recorded in conjunction with a computer, can be transferred through the motion cloud to a handheld
device.
