IOS Live Link Face app for Unreal

Epic Games has announced the release of a Live Link Face for Unreal Engine, and app for iOS that streams facial animation data directly onto characters in Unreal Engine in real-time. According to Epic, the “app’s tracking leverages Apple’s ARKit and the iPhone’s TrueDepth front-facing camera to interactively track a performer’s face, transmitting this data directly to Unreal Engine via Live Link over a network. Designed to excel on both professional capture stages with multiple actors in full motion capture suits as well as at a single artist’s desk, the app delivers expressive and emotive facial performances in any production situation”.
