Bring
full-body play
to your game.

PlayDock is a TV-first motion platform that runs on the phone you dock. The Unity SDK is in private beta — full-body tracking, gesture input, multiplayer support and sample scenes for fast prototyping.

For game developers

If you already ship in Unity, PlayDock adds body tracking, gesture input and local multiplayer through one SDK. Motion-heavy projects, party games and TV-first ports are a natural fit.

For creators & tinkerers

PlayDock runs on the phone's own OS, so you can load builds, experiment with the tracking APIs and prototype beyond traditional games. Custom gesture detectors let you adapt the input stack to your project.

Start your engines.

Unity access is available through the current private beta. More engines and runtimes are on the roadmap.

From blank scene
to first interaction.

Add the prefab, subscribe to input, press play. The SDK handles calibration and starts tracking.

Drop in the prefab

Add the PlayDock prefab to initialize tracking, input and default calibration.

Listen for gestures

Use the unified input event to receive the gesture name, player index and parameters.

Hit play

Press play. The SDK calibrates and streams input with no extra setup.

GestureInput.cs · C# / Unity

// Subscribe to the unified gesture event
PlayDock.Instance.inputEvents
  .OnGestureDetection += (int playerIndex, string name, object[] args) =>
{
    switch (name)
    {
        case "Jump":
            float height = (float)args[0];
            character.Jump(height);
            break;

        case "ArmRaise":
            Side side = (Side)args[0];
            character.RaiseShield(side);
            break;

        case "BodyMoveLeft":
            character.SwitchLane(-1);
            break;
    }
};

From raw data
to gameplay events.

Start with higher-level gestures, or drop down to tracked landmarks, calibration and player data when you need more control.

Full-body tracking

Pose landmarks and skeleton data for the whole body — 2D and 3D, raw and smoothed.

Hand gestures

Swipe detection plus static poses: fist, open palm, pointing, thumbs up, victory and more.

Head gestures

Nods, head shakes and directional look input for menus, prompts and light interactions.

Body movements

Jump detection, arm raises and side-to-side movement for rhythm, fitness and action.

Multiple players tracked at once with neon skeletons

Up to 4 players

Track multiple camera-based players in one session with separate calibration and event routing.

Cursor & segmentation

Hand-tracked cursor with pinch-to-click, plus player silhouette cutout for mixed-reality scenes.
