[v0.1.0] 9. Apply Motion Tracking
Last updated
Last updated
The Motion Adapter takes motion capture data from MediaPipe, processes it, and feeds it to the Controllers.
There are different Motion Adapters for different types of data processing. Data processing type in turn depends on the type of motion data and the type of Controller(s) that will be used.
Theoretically, if there are M number of motion data types that can be tracked and N number of Controllers, a total of M*N number of Motion Adapters can exist.
The MYTY Kit v0.1 provides 10 types of Motion Adapters to handle the more common animation scenarios.
Theoretically, Motion Adapters will allow you to take various motion data and freely connect them to different types of Controllers. But, we are still working through all animation possibilities with the MYTY Kit v0.1. Changing the Motion Adapter prefabs provided in the MYTY kit may lead to compatibility issues.
If the MYTY Kit doesn’t have an appropriate Motion Adapter for the animation that you’d like to make, please contact the MYTY Team through the Community channel or email.
You can see all MotionAdapters under Assets > MYTYKit > MotionAdapter folder.
You can select an appropriate Motion Adapter by taking into account the Controller and the Controller’s input (Motion data) that you’ll use.
Each Motion Adapter has its own Inspector window.
For all Motion Adapters, it is recommended that you do not touch the areas shaded in red, as they are settings for advanced animation.
Clicking on the ◉icon next to an input box will bring up an object list from which you can select an option.
1. In the Project window, Select Assets > MYTYKit > Prefabs. Drag Mediapipe prefab to a blank area in the Hierarchy window.
2. You can check the incoming input values in real-time, by selecting a RiggingElement object and clicking ▶️(Play).
Does a MediaPipe object fail to track your movement? Refer to our Troubleshooting & FAQfor a solution.
1. Right-click on a blank area of the Hierarchy window, and select Create Component to create a GameObject for the MotionAdapter's Group.
2. In the Inspector window, click Add Component and apply the Motion Adapter Group Component.
3. In the Project window, go to Assets > MYTYKit > MotionAdapter, click and drag the prefabs you want to apply into the MotionAdapter object in the Hierarchy window.
4. In the Inspector window, adjust the settings for each MotionAdapter, selecting the appropriate scripts, Controllers, and objects.
5. If nothing appears when you click the ◉ icon, it may be due to either of the following:
The MediaPipe prefab is not in the Hierarchy window → Check Add MediaPipe Prefab
6. Click ▶️(Play) to check that Motion Tracking works as intended.
Repeat steps 1 to 6 for each animation.
| Adapter Name | Motion Input | Related Controller |

The appropriate Script(s) are not applied to the Controller → Check
