ViRe is an open-source VR mocap studio built in Unity


ViRe avatar


ViRe can be used by anyone who wants to record motion but cannot afford a huge and expensive motion capture studio. All you need is a simple VR Setup. ViRe uses SteamVR, the industry-standard environment supporting all kinds of VR Headsets.

We made a video to showcase and explain ViRe. Simply click on the YouTube logo to watch it. The video is a little outdated compared to ViRe's current style, but the general explanations still apply

ViRe is supported on the following headsets

Valve Index logo

Meta Quest logo


It likely works on other headsets, but you might experience issues like unbound controller buttons. Got a headset we don't list? Tell us!

ViRe is currently in Beta

While most features are implemented, bugs are still abound.

As we're polishing things up for a "production" release, we really need to hear from you on the features we support and how well things are working.

Please reach out to us!
