About Webcam Motion Capture
Webcam Motion Capture is an AI-powered software that allows users to control 3D avatars using only a webcam. It eliminates the need for expensive motion capture devices, making virtual YouTubing and character animation accessible to a wider audience. The software tracks hand and finger movements, head and facial expressions, eye gaze, and upper body movements, and can send this data to external applications via VMC Protocol or save it to FBX files.
How to Use
Download the software for Windows or MacOS, unzip the downloaded file, and run the WebcamMotionCapture.exe (or the Mac equivalent). Follow the User Guide for setup and usage instructions. The software tracks your movements via webcam and applies them to a 3D avatar.
