Show HN: A tool for motion-capturing 3D characters using a VR headset Hi everyone! I'm one of the authors of this project. The demo you see here is powered by a tool that I recently helped develop and open-source at Shopify called handy. You can find the repo here: https://ift.tt/ZXLCJz8 Most people don't realize that VR headsets have become really capable motion capture platforms, so we decided to release this tool to bring motion capture into the hands of everyone who owns a headset. With a cheap Quest 2 you can capture your hands using the headset's hand-tracking feature and your head. With an expensive Quest Pro you could capture your facial expressions using the headset's eye and face-tracking features. Thanks for checking this project out! I'm here to answer questions if you have any. https://ift.tt/a1OgkuY January 17, 2023 at 07:33PM
