Advance Preparations

Prepare to use the sample app using the following procedure.

1. Connect the PC (Windows/Mac) on which Unity is installed to the local network.
2. Access the Downloads page and download the latest version of the Unity Plugin.
3. Extract the downloaded ZIP file to any folder.
   For details about the distributed data, refer to Content of the distributed data.
4. Connect the smartphone on which the mocopi app is installed to the local network.
5. Refer to Sending Data from a mocopi App for the state in which motion data can be sent using UDP from a mocopi app.
   Specify the IP address of the PC on which Unity is installed in the "IP" field, the port number (initial value: 12351) to use in the "Port" field, and "mocopi (UDP)" as the send format.

The advance preparations are now complete.
