Bio-Sensor is a 1984 Japanese computer-animated surreal short film produced by Takashi Fukumoto at Toyo Links and Hitoshi Nishimura at Osaka University. It's notable for its early use of primitive motion capture, using profile and head-on films of a tiger walking.

Description:

Four short vignettes in this early animated film. In the first, shadows pull away to reveal a puddle, and automobile and bicycle tires pass through it. In the second, cutout shadows of a variety of shoes of people walking are seen. The third is a flurry of geometric forms. In the fourth, the playing card spade courts the heart and pushes away the club, but eventually the club returns, beats up the spade, and wins the heart. (Source: AniDB)
