Camera movement via ARKit: • Stream out the positional and rotational data live to an Unreal Engine instance via Live Link over a network. • Drive the 3D camera within the real time environment. • Record the camera data via Take Recorder for use in Sequencer. Stream the camera view live from Unreal Engine: • Visualize the shot on the iPad or iPhone with accurate depth of field. • Modify camera parameters such as lens focus, iris, and zoom with immediate feedback. • Review previously recorded takes and store bookmarks to interesting locations within the world. Timecode support for multi-device synchronization: •Select from the iPhone system clock, an NTP server, or use a Tentacle Sync to connect with a master clock on stage.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Unreal VCam at none against MoCáp's 2. Unreal VCam also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). MoCáp's advantage is rating (3.2 vs 3.0) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
