Vicon Acquires Assets of Markerless Motion Capture Company Move AI

OXFORD, UK – 15 October 2026 – Oxford Metrics plc (LSE: OMG), the smart sensing and measurement technology group serving life sciences, entertainment, engineering and manufacturing markets, announced that it has acquired the assets of Move AI Ltd (“Move AI”), the London-based developer of AI-powered technology for capturing and digitising human movement. Move AI’s technology, intellectual property, patents, specialist team and customer relationships will transfer to Vicon, the motion capture division of Oxford Metrics Group.  

Move AI combines artificial intelligence, computer vision and an understanding of human biomechanics to convert video into detailed 3D motion data without the need for markers or specialist suits. Its technology spans single-camera tools for individual creators through to professional multi-camera and real-time systems, including its flagship Genesis platform. It enables capture inside and outside the studio, from individual performances to multiple people moving across spaces as large as a football pitch. 

“Move AI was a first mover and pioneer in markerless,” said Andrew Knox, Vicon’s Managing Director. “Combining their technology with Vicon’s measurement expertise and global customer relationships will accelerate product development significantly. It will also make sophisticated motion capture accessible to a broader range of users across entertainment, content creation, sport, biomechanics and human performance analysis.” 

While the acquisition enhances Vicon’s markerless toolset, optical, marker-based motion capture remains core to Vicon’s business. The company’s hybrid approach allows customers to adopt markerless capability alongside the optical systems they already use and trust.
