Your performance has always been dynamic, powerful, and expressive.

But truly understanding it was another story.

Motion capture systems keep up with your movement; measured, recorded, and analyzed. Now, the next-generation Xsens Link brings the utmost precision to capture your reality.

Re-engineered for professionals who need precision, reliability, and freedom of movement. Used by leading studios, research institutions, and innovation teams around the globe, the Xsens Link is built to deliver natural, high-fidelity motion in every environment.

The New eSuit

Ready, Snap, Action!

In high-pressure productions, where actors cycle in and out, or outdoor shoots demand mobility, the one-click snap mechanism keeps sensors aligned automatically.

No more “is this cable fully in?” moments. No more micro-shifts that show up as drift in long captures.

Teams can reset between takes faster, capture more variations in the same session, and reduce the fatigue that often comes from long prep times, especially in multi-actor environments.

Keep in Action

Nothing kills a great take faster than a dead battery.

The new hub solves this with a hot-swappable external battery system supported by an internal backup battery.

When the external battery runs low:

  • You swap the pack.
  • The system stays active.
  • Recording continues without interruption.

This alone makes the new Link far more reliable for outdoor shoots, long improvisation sessions, or research environments where continuous data streams matter.

Don’t Sweat It

Redesigned form-fitting eSuit is lightweight with breathable 4D stretch Lycra fabric and mesh ventilation. This design moves with the performer without restricting exaggerated poses or athletic sequences.

The cables now incorporated into the fabric allow for easier wear and increased mobility.

Waterproof cables are machine washable, and sensors can be easily detached from the suit.

Modular Capture for Any Workflow

The next-generation Xsens Link doesn’t lock you into full-body recordings.

Its modular design lets you run upper-body or lower-body setups independently, depending on the project.

Working on VR interaction tests? Upper body is all you need. Gait analysis? Lower body only. Large studio production? Full-body, multi-actor.

This flexibility keeps the system scalable, from indie studios to biomechanics labs to AAA motion studios, capturing entire fight scenes.

Future-Ready Hardware

The hub is built on a forward-looking hardware platform, prepared for upcoming accessories and features.

That means the investment you make now grows with the system, rather than being replaced by the next generation.
