Thanks for this! I have been working on something similar for an upcoming education app, record a course and play in the same app with a compact file format (1MB per minute, could be much less with some tricks). You can see a demo here : https://youtu.be/zcHAzQXm3Hg and more at https://explayn.me I will definitely check your lib, and will be happy to switch if it’s better !

Wow that's super cool! That's definitely the biggest challenge - how to keep the size of the mocap data small.

Our library is not the best at that, since it simply records everything to Alembic files, which are quite heavy.

Best of luck with Explayn. I really like the idea of learning from mocapped lessons.

Thanks for the kind words! Yes, file size for live action or shipping directly in an app is always an issue. I may actually contribute some code, my file format is no rocket science, just a bare set of floats with some metas, not even some diff encoding between frames, so quite easy to interpret between languages and platforms.
