The studio has four Rokoko head-mounted cameras available for facial motion capture. These cameras can be used with the Rokoko mobile app installed on one of the studio’s four Android phones, though this workflow requires an active Rokoko license. If a license is not available, the cameras can still be used with the free Unreal Engine Live Link app, which is also installed on the studio Android devices. The following guide explains how to use the Rokoko headset together with the Live Link Unreal Engine integration to stream facial capture data directly to MetaHumans in Unreal Engine.

Connecting the Headset To Live Link

Firstly, every time the Headset is plugged in it will prompt to open the Rokoko Face Capture app. If you are using the Rokoko Face Capture app press okay and follow the on screen instructions. If not, press cancel.
