In previous updates I was experimenting with connecting Metahumans to pre-recorded library mocap data in Fortnite - the next obvious thing to do is to hook the Metahuman up to my own custom mocap data.

But since I don't own a mocap suit, I wanted to check out AI powered mocap tools, without the need for any other hardware but a camera. I tried a couple, but found that Move.ai supplied the most stable output, considering I captured with only one camera.

Who else to test this setup with, but my son Daan - as a huge Fortnite fan he asked if he could perform his personal emote.🙂

Below is a screencapture of Daan's footage - Move AI's interpretation - and the mocap data connected to a realtime Metahuman in Fortnite.

Considering that Move.ai also supports multiple camera's for more stable results, I think AI mocap is definately here to stay to support amazing realtime content creation. I even found it to be more accurate than marker-based suits.

What do you think?
