LipSync Integration #359

Closed cameronedmond closed 3 years ago

cameronedmond commented 3 years ago

Hi there! We are working on a research project at my lab and are looking into UMA as a solution to one of our problems. We are looking for a lipsyncing solution to integrate with the avatars we have created. We are aware of SALSA, but wanted to check if there are any alternatives that the UMA developers recommend? Cheers!

Salsa and Lipsync Pro are the two most people use. Not sure on the status of Salsa though. You can also use a lipsync system that uses Blendshapes if you use the Blendshape Emulator (or if you add Blendshapes, of course). You may want to join the discord if you haven't already.

Awesome, thanks! Yeah, I was a bit stuck on using blendshapes with UMA, but I'm new to blendshapes in general. Do you have a link for the Discord? I can't seem to find it (but I might be dumb).
