MotionRiver: Universal Mocap Streamer

想象一下，在英国沉浸在VR体验中，所有角色都是由来自澳大利亚的现场演员制作的，或者是一款舞蹈视频游戏，其中包含在孟买拍摄的真实的舞者。_MotionRiver_允许开发人员创建新型响应式体验。从现场沉浸式表演到交互式视频游戏-这里的区别在于，而不是一遍又一遍地重复相同的编程或循环序列，角色将能够以自然和现实的方式做出反应和反应-因为他们是由真实的演员控制的。_MotionRiver_是一个创新的开源软件工具包，可以输入和输出各种各样的mocap数据，并将其转换为“通用”格式。就像Android和iOS在不同的手机上工作一样，也有不同类型的mocap数据-这个工具将解决兼容性问题-允许更多的互联性。应用程序通过互联网将数据流传输到运行该应用程序的远程计算机，该远程计算机可以接收并使用所需格式的运动数据。这项创新源于与如何在数字平台上捕捉和传播活力有关的研究问题。我们如何为沉浸式表演创造新的空间？我们如何弥合距离的差距，并在错位和局限的新背景下开展工作？_MotionRiver_是一个新的工具，它将使动作捕捉的更大的可访问性和创新的文化和创意合作的新方法。我们的新项目范围还期待; 1.解决我们的研发过程中发现的与Vicon平台相关的技术挑战，2.探索我们在开发软件解决方案过程中发现的新的开发机会，从而获得商业收益;建立更广泛的国际客户、合作伙伴和项目支持者网络。

Imagine immersing yourself in a VR experience in the UK where all the characters are animated by live actors from Australia, or a dance video game that features real dancers captured in Mumbai. _MotionRiver_ allows developers to create new types of responsive experience. From live immersive performances to interactive video games - the difference here is that instead of repeating the same programmatic or looping sequence, over and over, characters will be able to react and respond in a natural and realistic way - because they are controlled by real actors. _MotionRiver_ is an innovative open-source software toolkit that inputs and outputs a wide variety of mocap data which it converts into a 'universal' format. Just as Android and iOS work on different phones, there are also different types of mocap data - and this tool will solve the compatibility problem - allowing more interconnectivity. The application streams data over the internet to remote computers running the application which can receive and use the motion data in the desired format. The innovation stems from research questions relating to how to capture and disseminate liveness across digital platforms. How do we create new spaces for immersive performance to be made? How do we bridge the gap of distance and work within the new context of dislocation and confinement? _MotionRiver_ is a new tool that will enable greater accessibility of motion capture and innovate new methods of cultural and creative collaboration.Our new project scope also looks to; 1. resolve technical challenges revealed by our R&D process in relation to the Vicon platform, 2. explore new exploitation opportunities we have discovered in developing the software solution that will result in commercial gain and 3. build a wider, international network of clients, partners and project supporters.
