I'm interested. Our lab uses a motion capturing system by Krypton (a
spin-off of our lab; it's interfaced via Ethernet), and I have a masters
thesis just starting now that will use it one way or another in Blender.
So, it could be good to discuss some sort of common infrastructure for this
family of devices...
