Hi .. I have a Kinect V2.0 and want a second one for more complex motion capture ... (i have used by now brekel pro body2, but it do not supported more cams)

i need motion capture for my game enemys (knights and monster)..and some quick moves ..like rotating attack with swords .. or dying ..or other thinks ..like atttacks in Dark Souls or Bloodbourne (ps4 game)

here my questions .. what is my best choise ?

another kinect V2.0 Cam with the ipi mocap basic ?

or .. i switch completely to 6x PS Eyes ??

and if i move to the ps eyes .. how can i use them in a big room ..wich cable i need ?

Hi

First, it needs to be mentioned that for dual Kinect 2 system you'll need 2 PCs for recording, each for a single Kinect 2.
Actually, Kinect 2 differs not that much from its predecessor: having a wider FOV, better accuracy, less noise, and the same range and FPS.
Two Kinects can capture a wide range of motions (in a limited space), but are only capable of 30fps.

So if you want some really quick motions, then 60fps provided by PS Eye may be a big plus. Also PS Eyes give you a much bigger capture space suitable for distant motions.
For connecting PS Eyes you'll need USB 2.0 repeaters (active extension cables) like these ones: TrendNET, Monoprice
You can also record from multiple PCs to simplify connections.
