GDC 2026 was a huge week for OptiTrack! From packed booth traffic to standout conversations with developers, partners, and creators, the show was a powerful reminder of how much excitement there is around the future of motion capture.
At the center of it all was our live demo experience, including Duplex Mode in action - simultaneous markerless and marker-based motion capture from the same system. Attendees also got to see our immersive AR demonstration, where Motive avatars appeared to step right out of the screen, creating one of the most talked-about experiences of the show in our booth.
We were proud to show how OptiTrack continues to combine precision, flexibility, and innovation for teams building the next generation of games, virtual production tools, and interactive experiences.
Thanks to everyone who visited us at GDC. We’re grateful for the momentum, the conversations, and the opportunity to share what we’re building.
