You are however limited to using a single RGB/depth sensor camera, but it's 99% as reliable as the more expensive options. The express edition includes the both iPi Recorder & iPi Mocap Studio. That means it’s totally yours and includes two years of technical support and software updates. You can get an express $195 perpetual license for iPi.
