The Extended Plus Profile is designed to enhance existing CC3+ characters for use with iPhone facial mocap. It introduces morph extensions that enable more nuanced, non-linear facial performance, improve lip precision for natural speech animation, and incorporate corrective morphs to elevate mocap quality, particularly for intense emotional expressions.
Compatible with iPhone and MetaHuman Animator, CC5 delivers non-linear facial animation using advanced curve-based controls. It realistically simulates complex muscle movements, including sticky lips, elastic puckers, and brows that drop and furrow during a frown.

Designed by animators, for animators - Reallusion's latest facial mocap tools go further, addressing core issues in the facial mocap pipeline to produce better animation. Starting from all new ARKit expressions, to easily adjusting raw mocap data as well as retargeting, to multipass facial recording and essential mocap cleanup - we're covering all the bases to provide you with the most powerful, flexible and user friendly facial mocap approach yet.
The biggest issue with all live mocap is that it's noisy, twitchy and difficult to work with, so smoothing the live data in realtime is a big necessity; because if the mocap data isn't right, or the the model's expressions aren't what you want, and the current mocap recording isn't quite accurate then you need to have access to the backend tools to adjust all of this. Finally, while you can smooth the data in realtime from the start, you can also cleanup existing recorded clips using proven smoothing methods which can be applied at the push of a button.
