Move AI vs XR Animator

Move AI describes its products as markerless motion-capture systems that use AI to create motion data. Move One is an iPhone app that turns single-camera video into 3D animation. Its free plan provides 30 credits once, which do not expire, for videos up to 30 seconds. Starter costs $18 a month, billed at $18/month plus VAT, and includes 60 credits per month for videos up to 60 seconds. Other listed tiers are Standard at $48 a month, Plus at $225 a month, and Advanced at $490 a month. Genesis processes motion data on premises through a desktop application using Nvidia GPUs. It requires one Nvidia GPU and 6–12 Z CAM cameras and lenses; listed capture capacity is 1–8 people in volumes of 4 × 4 meters or 20 × 20 meters. Genesis can process RGB or grayscale feeds from many existing Vicon or OptiTrack systems and integrates with Peel Capture for camera control, start and stop commands, file naming, and project management. Output formats include FBX, BVH, GLB, USDZ, Blender, C3D, JSON, and MP4 previews. Move AI says it does not actively try to identify people in video, motion data, or output files.

XR Animator is a free tool for driving MMD or VRM 3D avatars from pose input. It uses MediaPipe and TensorFlow.js to detect poses from webcam video, and supports face, full-body, and combined face, body, and hand tracking. Full-body tracking can use a webcam or an image or video file. Face tracking supports 52 ARKit-compatible blendshapes. Users can record motion capture, export VMD, BVH, and glTF motion, and load VMD, FBX, and BVH motion files; FBX or BVH motion can also be exported to VMD. The scene can include 2D images or video, 3D panoramas, and .x or .glb objects. The web app works in major desktop and smartphone browsers, while Electron apps are available for Windows, Linux, and macOS. Android Chrome supports augmented reality. VMC protocol support and a frameless transparent background for capture apps are limited to Electron mode. The project notes that smartphones with limited processing power may be better suited to face tracking alone.
