The NYU
movement group is a motion capture
lab and research group dedicated to the analysis
and animation of all forms of human movement.
It is housed at NYU's Courant Institute. Many projects
are at the boundary between computer science, dance,
performance art, animation, medical research, and
other uses of motion capture technology. It
is mainly funded by grants from NYU, the National
Science Foundation, Office of Naval Research, and
Sloan Foundation.

The Movement
Group conducts reasearch with Peggy Hackney on the
NSF Laban Capture
Project. Our latest results will appear at the

The Movement Group is featured in the April 2nd issue of Business Week. The article focuses on recent developments in motion capture technology, including a new NYU project on body-language and bio-metrics and an online interview with Chris Bregler discussing several of the group's ongoing projects. Note that our NYU mocap suit graces the magazine's cover! |

The Movement
Group, along with a team of collaborators and
friends, unveiled what may very well be the world's
largest-scale video game for large audiences using
motion capture technology. "Squidball"
was presented at the SIGGRAPH 2004 Electronic
Theater in Los Angeles. The 'game experiment'
was a unique and amazing experience. click
