“IKinema is a great partner to The VOID as we create the elements needed for an immersive, believable and engaging experience,” added The VOID’s Head of Technology, Farrell Edwards. “Accurate translation of a person’s physical movements in real-time is crucial to generate the kind of immersion that allows someone to believably assume a new identity and suspend reality. Star Wars:Secrets of the Empire delivers on that promise of immersion with the help of IKinema’s incredible full body-solving technology.”

IKinema’s powerful software solutions are consistently in demand by top games developers and creators of immersive VR and AR experiences for its ability to produce quality motion and perfectly matched behaviours across all styles of 3D characters. Avatars respond with higher fidelity by use of inverse kinematics across the entire body, allowing humanoid and fantasy creatures to react intuitively and naturally when scaling obstacles and traversing dynamically evolving terrain.
