HART stands out in the Superhive library for combining MHX2 import and MakeWalk with mocap retargeting, cloth simulation and intersection handling in a single Blender add-on.
Human Activity Replication Toolbox (HART) is a Blender add-on from Innovision, LLC. that works with imported human models, cloth models, scene models and motion capture data to produce natural and realistic animation of human activities. It integrates a modified version of MHX2 import and MakeWalk developed by the MakeHuman team, retargets motion capture data to a human model, and edits the motion of an animated avatar.
Rather than hiding or removing the human body surface under clothes to avoid intersections, HART can generate "multiple layers" animation for some basic motions without intersection. It provides separate meshes for body surface, cloth, and body attachment placed on the body under clothes.
HART generates animation from imported data, detects intersections between two object meshes, retargets mocap data to an armature, edits actions of the animated avatar, makes the animated subject interact with a scene, runs cloth simulation, clears intersections between clothes and human during post-processing, and outputs the result as 3D objects. The add-on is documented, and a demo video is available.
Human Activity Replication Toolbox (Hart) is best for blender animators working with human models, cloth, scenes and motion capture data who need to produce realistic human activity animations.
Human Activity Replication Toolbox (Hart) is completely free to download and use.
Human Activity Replication Toolbox (HART) is listed for Blender version 2.8. If you run a different Blender release, check the developer's page for compatibility details before installing, as behaviour on other versions is not stated here. The add-on is documented, and a demo video is available to help you see how it fits into a Blender workflow with imported human models, cloth models, scene models and motion capture data.
Human Activity Replication Toolbox (HART) can detect intersections between two object meshes and clear intersections between clothes and human during post-processing. Instead of hiding or removing the body surface under clothes, HART can generate multiple-layer animation for some basic motions without intersection, providing separate meshes for body surface, cloth, and body attachment placed on the body under clothes. It also runs cloth simulation for an animation.
Human Activity Replication Toolbox (HART) works with imported human models, cloth models, scene models and motion capture data. It generates animation from that imported data, retargets mocap data to an armature, edits actions of the animated avatar, and makes the animated subject interact with a scene. When finished, HART can output the result of the animation as 3D objects for further use in Blender.
Human Activity Replication Toolbox (HART) is listed as free in this catalog and is released under the GPL license. For current licensing terms and any conditions attached to using the add-on, check the developer's page from Innovision, LLC. That page also hosts the documentation and a demo video, which can help you understand how the toolbox operates within Blender before you commit to using it.
