Specialized for the upper body
Recognizing that VTuber streams often only display the upper body, such as during game commentary or chat streams, LuppetX is specialized to enhance the expression of this part. (Also, having the face close up is cute and pleasing!)
For example, the software includes features to assist with natural movements of the upper body, such as physiological eye movements and natural arm movements. With just two pieces of equipment, your character will move vibrantly, thanks to numerous ingenuities we’ve incorporated.
Just a Web Camera and LeapMotion
With LuppetX, you don’t need expensive devices like VR equipment or suits.
A web camera for face tracking and a LeapMotion for hand tracking are all you need to use LuppetX.
As these can be obtained for about 20,000 yen, it makes it a software easy to introduce even for individual streamers.
Keeping required operations and setup to a minimum.
Many VTubers are not computer experts.
LuppetX has been designed with ease of use in mind to enable anyone to run VTuber streams single-handedly.
To use LuppetX, all you need to do is wear the LeapMotion on your neck and point the camera at yourself. There is no need for calibration in advance. It is designed to move easily and cutely, so you can prepare with confidence even just before the stream.
Animate various characters
LuppetX can animate characters from VRM files.
In addition to converting your own 3D character models to VRM, you can also use any of your favorite ones from BOOTH or VRoidHub.
or characters created with VRoid Studio.
We also support VRM1.0!
Accessory Function
Try adding accessories like ribbons or cat ears! A little arrangement creates a special atmosphere perfect for anniversaries or events.
The accessories you put on follow the character’s movements.
Why not make your character even more vibrant by adding accessories not only to the head, but also to other parts, like a necklace on the neck or a microphone on the arm? Add more color to your unique character with the accessory function!
External Motion Transmission
LuppetX now allows real-time external transmission of motion compliant with the VMC Protocol!
This allows you to use the motion created in LuppetX in other apps.
(In the example, we’re using the VRoom).
By creating your own motion receiving app, you can also create apps that record animations or train operations using machine learning.
