Arcade machines have evolved significantly with advancements in technology, now incorporating motion capture and body tracking systems to create immersive gaming experiences. These systems use cameras, sensors, or wearable devices to detect players' movements and translate them into in-game actions.

Integration typically involves hardware like infrared cameras or depth sensors (e.g., Microsoft Kinect) and software that processes motion data. The arcade machine's software then maps these movements to game controls, allowing players to interact naturally without traditional input devices.

This technology is popular in rhythm games, sports simulations, and VR arcades, offering a more engaging and physical gaming experience. Challenges include latency reduction and accurate tracking, but ongoing innovations continue to improve performance.

By blending motion capture with arcade gaming, developers are redefining player interaction and pushing the boundaries of entertainment.
