Update: 2/6: Remedy's new Associate Community Manager, Vida Starcevic recently wrote an article for Gamasutra detailing Uuno's adventures and the motion capture experiment.
As part of an experimentation of the motion-capture tech, Remedy's Junior Cinematographer, Sami Kastarinen, brought his Staffordshire Bull Terrier into the office and put him in his own custom mo-cap suit.

The dog is called Uuno, and soon after photographs of the little guy was posted online, he started to get a lot of publicity. Videos and articles were posted about him on channels such as IGN, RiotFest, Reddit, Game Informer (archived), Machinima, GAMINGbible, and more.
It wasn't long before there was Remedy fan art featuring Uuno from Toey:

At present, the dog mo-cap testing is still an experiment rather than a teaser for what to expect in CROSSFIRE 2 or "P7" but it does show that it's an area they're interested in exploring it.
And so much more + I'm pretty sure this is not even the half of it all. People have been giving so many virtual pets, scratches and cuddles for Uuno so as thanks to you all, have this selfie from the original Uuno. 📸 #TeamUuno #staffordshirebullterrier #YearOfTheDog pic.twitter.com/lnYZODHKxn— Sami Kastarinen (@SamiKastarinen) May 16, 2018
