Mobile Connectivity Overhaul | SceneForge 0.5.11

Apr 12, 2022 2:32 pm

Hello there!

When the mobile app connectivity feature was first being built, I envisioned a "utility" tool that could be used for not just camera tracking, but set design, motion capture, and so much more. Up until now, only the first part was realized, but this new release opens the door to so much more.


As of now, the app is called SceneForge Utility and is available for update/download from the App Store and Google Play


As always, you can check out the video below:

What's New:

Well, as opposed to previous versions where the mobile connection functionality was all in "Shoot Mode", now it has its own universal menu that can be accessed in the top right corner of the screen.


Once connected, you can choose a "Mode" from the app's portrait mode UI. At the moment it includes the camera tracking that works exactly like before, but now you can also use an AR measuring tool to "scan" in your real-world set area to create a representation inside the 3D scene.

This is useful for set layout and design, and mapping out your physical space inside your virtual set for Live Virtual Production.


And, coming soon is full body motion capture for Humanoid Rigged Characters using Apple's ARKit system.


Thanks for Reading!
