Média 1 pour l'article Runtime MetaHuman Lip Sync (AI for NPCs) (+ CC4, Genesis, ARKit, and more)

Description

ℹ️ Note: The images with plugin examples and the demo project were created using the Runtime Audio Importer and/or Runtime Text To Speech / Runtime AI Chatbot Integrator / Runtime Local LLM plugins. So, to follow these examples, you will need to install these plugins as well. However, you can also implement your own audio or text input solution without using them.

🗣️ Three Advanced Models for Every Project Need!

Bring your MetaHuman and custom characters to life with zero-latency, real-time lip sync! Now featuring three quality models to suit your project requirements:

🌟 Mood-Enabled Realistic Model - Emotion-aware facial animation for MetaHuman characters with 12 different moods

🌟 Realistic Model - Enhanced visual fidelity specifically for MetaHuman characters with more natural mouth movements (81 facial controls)

⚡️ Standard Model - Broad compatibility with MetaHumans and custom characters (14 visemes)

Transform your digital characters with seamless, real-time lip synchronization that works completely offline and cross-platform! Watch as your characters respond naturally to speech input, creating immersive and believable conversations with minimal setup.
