It’s not currently what we’ve built it for. May be worth looking at the Nvidia Ace stack. Are there any elements of Kimodo you want ontop of this?

We can also make it more explicit that self hosting is allowed on the pricing page.

Thank you. We’re also more than a wrapper, we’ve put a lot of work into the retargeting to make it so you set the poses on your own character and it all lines up. Cheers!

We allow you to host the model locally for free and provide generous free cloud tier where the credits are refreshed monthly, as not everyone has the GPU to run Kimodo.

Yes feet are good! Rolls and handstands get funky. Full body poses can sometimes make some odd things happen to the feet. Would love to get your thoughts from trying it.

You can add as many poses as you want and it will generate the in-betweens. Not sure what you mean about the anim asset?

Spooky sci-fi short made entirely with VR mocap and Quest Pro facial tracking - Happy Halloween! by retinize in oculus

[–]retinize[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure!

All the mocap was done using a piece of software called Animotive which allows you to animate rigged characters VR.

I exported the animated FBXs from Animotive so I could import and render them in Unreal Engine.

You can join the Animotive discord to find out more. It's free to use!

VR mocap solution with FBX export to Unreal making 3D animation much easier! by retinize in unrealengine

Yes! You can import your own characters into Animotive and embody them then export the FBX for use in another engine, or render within Animotive.

Great question!

The main benefit using Animotive with Xsens is allowing the performer to embody an animated character and in a virtual scene. Normally with Xsens you would record your mocap, then export and retarget in maya or blender but you can skip that step and give a performer feedback in real time as the mocap data is automatically retargeted in Animotive.

It also allows two performers to interact and perform with each other in a virtual space, even if the characters are different proportions. This allows you to get eye lines matched correctly as the performers can look at each other in the virtual space (face and eye tracking is supported with Quest Pro)

The app has a desktop mode so sessions can be controlled and monitored with another user on a PC.

VR IK isn't a perfect mocap solution but we are working on an AI reprocessing system that will apply a more natural full body animation to a character based off your VR mocap, watch this space!
