An actor’s career shift from theater to motion capture for video games highlights Poland’s role in developing the mocap industry, largely driven by CD Projekt Red. The article notes that due to the communist period, Polish children missed out on console gaming, fostering a strong technical aptitude for computers. This background contributed to Poland becoming an emerging market, which fueled the growth of the local game development sector and specialized mocap facilities. Now, this expertise is expanding into artificial intelligence and robotics. Motion capture data is crucial for training AI models for humanoid robots; therefore, Polish studios are creating massive datasets for research in physical AI and robotics. While hardware development is dominated by China, Poland aims to establish itself in the software and intelligence aspects—the data, models, and algorithms that will power future humanoid robotics.
