Overview

This API reference describes the GraphQL APIs you can use to interact with the Move API platform for motion capture processing. Move API enables developers to build motion capture applications and workflows by converting video footage into 3D motion capture data using AI, physics, and biomechanics models.

We offer SDKs to simplify integration and bypass direct GraphQL requests. Currently we support the following languages:

  • Python
  • Swift (planned)

  "data": {
    // Response data
  },
}

Error codes​

We return custom Move Errors if something fails in the workflow with available suggestions to fix the issue.

MV_010_010_0001 = (
        {"suggestions": ["Is there a human in the frame?"]},
        "MV_010_010_0001",
        True,
        "Failed to create a volume."
    )
