About Vicon
Vicon develops optical motion-capture systems for engineering, robotics, life sciences and entertainment. Valkyrie and other high-speed cameras track reflective or active markers, while Tracker software reconstructs precise three-dimensional position and orientation for robots, people and moving objects.
Robotics teams use the system as ground truth for localisation, control validation, dynamic testing and sim-to-real research. Synchronisation and real-time streaming connect measurements to robot controllers and analysis tools across a calibrated capture volume. With more than 40 years in motion capture, Vicon supplies cameras, software, integration, calibration and support to laboratories and industrial facilities.
