The traditional workflow for characters' animations from 3d graphic software to Unity is usually something like this:

1. Bake all keyframes locally first;

2. Export them with character's model as a FBX file;

3. Import these motion data in import settings of Unity by ...

I used to play with motion capture when I still was an university student and what I still remember nowadays about this system is that, its accuracy and high costs. It's not affordable for independent content creator or small business. Even for companies of medium size...

I used to try several traditional 3d printers which consumed ABS materials to make this landmark building to test how accurate their nozzles could be. And this time, I applied the same model on Form 2, a desktop SLA 3d printer.

The final answer made by this machine is s...

The development of photogrammetry software is a boom in recent years. They became faster, more accurate and much easier to use.  

I tried one of them for several projects in 2016, the Autodesk ReMake, which works fine even with photos taken by mobile phones and its only...

For Maya users (Max users also), it’s normal to animate geometries with tools such as IK, constraints, driven keys, deformers and blend shapes. These animation tools are quite mature in those professional 3d graphic softwares in the market.

But once you need to export t...

Due to the nature of this project, all models should be made 1:1 and as accurate as possible because they need to interact with human beings as a virtual environment after deployment.

However, there was a lack of accurate references during the production.

Fortunatel...

This is one of the most interesting projects that I have done these years.

The most challenging part is not only the modelling of plants and flowers under a tight schedule, but also to texture them in a SIMILAR way as what have been presented in the original Chinese pai...
