mimem.ai turns your iPhone into a wireless motion capture camera — markerless mocap with the phones you already own. It records 4K 60fps on device and uploads straight to your mimem session: real quality in, real motion out. Pair up to 12 phones and hit record once — every camera fires together for one synchronized take. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open your mimem session on desktop and add an iOS camera 2. Point your iPhone at the QR code — you're paired 3. Frame your performer and control everything from the desktop 4. Stop recording and your takes upload automatically FEATURES • Wireless pairing via QR code — no cables, no configuration • Live preview streaming over Wi-Fi or cellular, with adjustable quality • 4K 60fps H.264 recording on device, so capture quality never depends on your connection • Every take saved locally with automatic upload and retry — a dropped connection never costs you a shot • Full remote control from the desktop: front/back camera and 0.5x, 1x, 3x lenses • Auto-reconnect when your network changes mid-session • Multi-camera capture: up to 12 phones in one synchronized take, or mix with webcams, DSLRs, and GoPros ABOUT MIMEM.AI mimem.ai is AI-powered markerless motion capture. It converts regular video footage into game-ready 3D animation (FBX) for Unreal, Unity, Blender, and Maya. Unlike generative tools, mimem captures what actually happened in the footage: every nuance, hesitation, and weight shift comes from the performer, not from an algorithm. Used by game developers, animators, film and VFX professionals, and animation schools. This app is a companion to the mimem.ai desktop webapp and requires a mimem.ai account. A free plan is available at mimem.ai. Real motion. Really captured.
