How to set up the Coil Pro
-
Rokoko Studio
Download and install Rokoko Studio by going to rokoko.com/studio -
Position your Coil Pro
Rokoko Coil Pro can be placed in the room in multiple ways. For example by directly putting it on a table, floor or other flat, plane surface. Coil Pro can also be mounted on a tripod or upside-down from the ceiling via the thread mount in the foot.
Ferro-metals such as iron will affect the electromagnetic field emitted by the Coil Pro.
Therefore, for optimal capture performance, avoid placing the Coil Pro close to ferro-metals and secure uninterrupted capture space. -
Connect your Coil Pro to the computer
Use the USB C to A cable to connect the Coil Pro to the computer: The C end connects to Coil Pro and the A end connects to the computer. The USB C connection on Coil Pro is found on the bottom of Coil Pro.
The Coil Pro is not producing a field and is thereby not functional for recordings in this PC-connected state. -
Update firmware
Open Rokoko Studio and check for new firmware updates. We always recommend updating to the latest firmware version.
If you don’t see any prompts to update when your devices are connected, it means you have the latest firmware already. -
Power up your Coil Pro
Locate the included power supply and connect it to your Coil Pro. The same USB-C port/slot that was used to attach to the PC can now be used to power up the device into an active state for recordings.
Be sure to use the specific power supply included with the Coil Pro. Also, do not use this included power supply to power other devices than Coil Pro. -
Pairing Coil Pro and Smartgloves
When Smartgloves are powered up, they will automatically detect and pair themselves with Coil Pro in Studio.
Make sure that Smartgloves are running the latest firmware version. For instructions on firmware update for Smartgloves, please refer to the quick start guide for Smartgloves.

Onwards to motion capture
-
Create a scene
Setup your motion capture scene with the relevant Actors and pair your Rokoko gear to them. -
Calibrate
Once paired, be sure to calibrate all actors.
It is good practice to do so once in a while in-between recordings as well. -
Record or livestream
When everything is set up and calibrated, start recording and see your motion capture in real-time. You can also instead choose to just livestream the data to another application like Blender, Unity, Unreal or Maya. -
Clean
Use our built-in filters and editing tools to clean up your mocap recordings and have it looking just right. -
Export
When you’re done with your recordings, you can batch export using a range of export settings.
