Is it possible to combine facial mocap with body mocap?

Post by curly01 »

Hi,
Is it possible to link or parent a facial mocap file to a head in a body rigged character and still use the body mocap data?

Or can you use only either body or facial mocap one at a time?
(In other words: Can mocap data be parented to other rigging structures -> in this case: The head")

Wouldn't it be cool to release a helmet style facial mocap camera with mocap camera's on the helmet?)

Currently it is not possible to do, with our software.

Facial, and full body can currenly not be captured at the same time, so there is no way to stream both.

You might be able to use MotionBuilder to combine them during post-processing (non-real-time) though.
