Best Answer

Motion capture is the process of simulating actual movement in a computer generated environment.

A subject (such as a person) would wear a special suit that has special nodes that send their location data to a computer.

In this fashion, a person in a MoCap suit could walk across the room, and the data could be used to make a video game character do the same.
