I worked on this application as part of a graduate student’s MFA thesis, in which the objective was to design a virtual reality conference app.
In this app, I developed a script to automatically load customized avatars from the website Ready Player Me, rig them to an inverse kinematics animations rig, and animate them based on live hand tracking data from their virtual reality headsets.
Additionally, the avatars were loaded into the network to allow for voice chat, live translation between languages, and a sense of presence between the people in the lobby.
