What it does
Rokoko Studio connects motion capture, cleanup, character retargeting and export. It works with Rokoko capture hardware or the separate Vision video workflow, with a lasting free Starter plan and paid workflow features.
Studio can apply root locking, foot-contact adjustments, elevation tracking and knee-pop smoothing to live motion or saved recordings. Captured body, finger and face data depend on the input tools; a free software account does not include those physical devices.
Queue a recording by right-clicking it in the explorer and choosing Add to export list, or tick the box beside its name. Multiple takes can share an export batch. Choose the file format, skeleton, frame rate and applicable mesh options. Enable Override Actor skeleton to use a skeleton preset; leave it off when exporting a custom character already retargeted in Studio.
FBX can contain body and face animation, with an optional body mesh. BVH carries body motion only, while CSV provides body and finger data. Some settings and formats require paid access. Starter includes recording, cleanup and FBX export; custom-character import and live streaming require a paid plan.
Pro is advertised at USD 600 per user per year or USD 70 per user per month, before taxes and other applicable fees. Each person needs a separate login, though that user may install the software on multiple computers. Offline use requires periodic reconnection, with the interval set by the plan.
Your own recordings and Rokoko's supplied motion assets have different rights: the latter carry specific redistribution and AI-training restrictions.
