Xsens, part of Movella, has introduced the next generation of its flagship motion capture system, Xsens Link. This redesigned suit is aimed at professionals in animation, gaming, virtual production, and visual effects (VFX).

The new Xsens Link features upgraded sensors and a reengineered 4D performance eSuit, designed to make motion capture workflows more efficient and user-friendly. The system now reduces setup time by 50% compared to the previous version, addressing the needs of modern production environments.

According to Dennis Kloppenburg, Product Manager at Xsens, the original Link suit set a high standard for inertial motion capture over the past decade. The latest version builds on this reputation, offering improvements for both single-actor and multi-performer shoots, and delivering detailed motion data with minimal preparation.

Key updates include:

• Lightweight, breathable fabrics for greater comfort
• Integrated, washable cables to maintain sensor alignment
• Hot-swappable batteries for uninterrupted shoots
• Wi-Fi 6E connectivity for stable, real-time streaming to Xsens Animate, Unreal Engine, Blender, and other third-party platforms
• A flexible hub system that can be positioned anywhere on the suit for added comfort

The improved sensor placement helps capture cleaner motion data with fewer errors, supporting accuracy during post-production, even for complex movements. Eric Salzman, CEO of Movella, emphasized that the new Link system is designed to provide production teams with the speed, precision, and reliability needed to meet tight industry deadlines and enhance visual storytelling.
