Deepmotion offers a variety of motion data-related services, most notably Animate 3D, an online platform that lets users generate 3D animations from video. In addition, Deepmotion also provides solutions such as real-time body tracking, virtual reality tracking and Motion Brain, bringing innovation and convenience to gaming, augmented/virtual reality, motion analysis and other application fields.
【team introduction】
DeepMotion is an American artificial intelligence company founded in 2014 and headquartered in San Diego, California. The company's mission is to use deep learning technology and simulation to develop intelligent motion control solutions.
DeepMotion's core products include AI dynamics engine (AI animation engine) and AI motion control platform. AI dynamics engine is an artificial intelligence animation engine based on deep learning technology and physical simulation technology, which can be used to generate high-fidelity character animation and object animation in real time. The AI motion control platform is an artificial intelligence solution based on deep learning technology and motion control technology, which can be used to realize intelligent motion control and motion planning, and is applicable to various fields such as robots, automatic driving, games, virtual reality and augmented reality Applications.
Deepmotion's team is made up of industry veterans from companies such as Blizzard, Pixar, Disney, ROBLOX, Microsoft, Crystal Dynamics, and Ubisoft, with a wealth of experience and a passion for motion technology. Deepmotion has also been recognized and supported by the industry. For example, in March 2023, Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. announced an investment in Deepmotion to explore new forms of entertainment in the Metaverse. In addition, Deepmotion has received an Epic MegaGrant from Epic Games to support its AI and physics simulation-based animation and motion tracking solution, seamlessly integrated with Unreal Engine 4.

【Function】
The most distinctive feature of Deepmotion is Animate 3D, an online platform that allows users to generate 3D animations from videos. Animate 3D has the following advantages:
-
Easily create full-body animations, including face and hand tracking, without the need for special hardware, cameras, or suits—just an internet connection and a web browser.
-
3D animations can be created from video clips in minutes, greatly reducing development time and costs.
-
Support multiple output formats, including FBX, GLB, BVH, MP4, etc., and can be directly imported into common platforms, such as Unity, Unreal Engine, Blender, ROBLOX, etc.
-
Provides advanced features such as physics simulation, foot lock, hand ground contact, slow motion processing, face and hand tracking, etc., giving users more control and flexibility to create high-fidelity 3D animations.
-
Allow users to upload custom FBX, GLB or VRM characters, or use default characters (including a new ROBLOX character), or create new models directly through Animate 3D, and AI will automatically reposition the animation to the custom character .
-
An interactive animation previewer is provided, allowing users to immediately verify and edit their 3D animation results, before downloading for fine-tuning using the new Rotoscope pose editor.
