faceware camera continues to face delays, might be canceled outright
supposedly CIG created a wing of the company to handle manufacturing and distribution of the camera
faceware engineers helped create the code for the first big reveal
12+ months of continued support on their end when they were supposed to help for six
some contention over payments due 3lateral / faceware (same company btw)
friction over potential losses if camera is canceled with new owners (epic bought 3lat earlier this year)
losses / lost payments total "tens of millions"
would have to sell "many units" to break even on camera
"low priority" for CIG and Epic, as numbers of potential sales look low / dire
"It was a passing fad used as a content patch. No one here thinks it's still happening."
if there's no agreement met with current issues, 3lat can stop any and all mocap footage using their rigs / technology from appearing in SC
