Capture Studio

Capture Studio is a suite of tools I’ve been developing for an upcoming project. The goals is to make motion and performance capture easier, make tools that anyone can download and use without requiring specific game engines, networking, marker suits, web service subscriptions, or any of the other headaches that currently stand in the way.

Features

  1. Face / Pose animation processing from ArKit / Google Mediapipe

  2. Debugging and Video Processing in native app

  3. Animation importing tools (currently only in Houdini)

  4. Automatically exports extracted audio, runs Whisper Text-to-Speech and generated Rhubarb animation data

 Capture Studio iOS

Capture studio for iOS leverages the front facing depth camera and Apple’s blendshape detection model to estimate the blendshape poses.

Rather than storing raw blendshape value data we encode the blendshape values into the recorded pixel grid so we can edit, retime, and concatenate videos together before exporting the animation data.
