OptiTrack and StretchSense Ink Global Reseller Agreement and Form Strategic Partnership to Create Smoother Workflows for Game and Film Studios

StretchSense and OptiTrack team up

CORVALLIS, OREGON —December 16, 2021OptiTrack (NaturalPoint), a worldwide leader in 3D tracking systems, has formally agreed with StretchSense to become a global authorized reseller of StretchSense’s hand and finger motion capture solution.

Strategic Partnership

The strategic partnership includes both technology and channel benefits. OptiTrack will become a reseller of StretchSense gloves, giving customers the opportunity to buy a complete body and hand motion capture solution through a single channel. Customers can then use OptiTrack’s optical body capture with StretchSense hands as one, bringing simplicity to the often-complex motion capture technology set.

In addition, the two companies have been working together on a new integration to create smoother workflows for game and film studios alike, allowing for more speed and accuracy throughout the creative and production process, as well as minimizing clean-up in post-production.

Expanding Partnership with Continued Focus on Customer Success

Today’s announcement builds on the existing relationship between OptiTrack and StretchSense, with the impetus for partnership being twofold: 1) demand from the mutual customer base, and, 2) a shared vision for advancing the state of the art in emerging motion capture applications.

This partnership is an amazing opportunity to build new value for our mutual customers, and to expand our reach into the enterprise game and film studio market. We are excited to extend our partnership with StretchSense, and to deliver more accurate, complete, and capable mocap systems.
