ABOUT

Becoming a Vtuber or VStreamer cannot be easy.... Right?

Well, give VCRA a shot and be ready to be proven wrong! With the help of Unity, get your 3D Avatar ready within just a few minutes.

All it is needed is a Webcam, and you already have a functional 3d tracking for your head!

Even people who do not own a Webcam have an excuse. There is a mode that only uses your mouse as a tracker.

The answer is quite simple. It offers a very easy environment, with very little setup behind it. No need to spend a penny in overpriced Trackers and Sensors. And is now FREE!

• Developed in Unity, you can use your everyday webcam to track your movement into your model/avatar.

• Don't have a webcam ready, and you can't afford to buy one? By tracking your voice, mouse position, keyboard strokes and some animations to make things smoother, you are able to have your own character fully animated and ready to be used for your videos or streams!

• A SteamVR alternative! As long as it tracks on SteamVR, it can be used!

So, to make things simple and clear, what is this project objectives:

• Desktop Tracking: This mode uses only your voice, keyboard and mouse as tracking systems for your model.
• Camera Tracking: This mode uses your webcam (or any camera that is usable on your computer) to track your head movements, including blinking.
• VR headset Tracking: This mode uses your VR devices as tracking. Which part of your model the devices control, is all picked by yourself. This gives you freedom to mix SteamVR with your Webcam tracking too.

Any of the methods you choose to go for, they use your sound to track your mouth movement (visemes).

FEATURES

• Very easy and simple avatar preparation

• Low GPU usage, if all you want is to put this on the corner of your screen. You can use a cheap GPU for it, tested it with a very old AMD 7800 series. Resize-able window to help with that (the smaller the window, the less work you give to your GPU).

•  Easy to use

(gif is low fps, not the app, limited to use 3MB lol)

• Mouth Tracking using Visemes

• Mouse and Keyboard Tracking

What is working right now:

• Desktop Tracking
