Can you use any head mounted camera for metahuman animator?

Hi. I’ve posted before asking whether it is worth purchasing an iphone for live link (was using other software packages but issues with lagging behind metahuman updates) . I read the metahuman animator docs and apparently you can use a head mounted camera as well (although I did read posts where maybe the head mounted camera functionality is not yet available with metahuman animator).

I have seen some cheaper options for head mounted cameras - can any be used? Thanks

Hi!

From what I understand from the documentation, you would at least need a “stereoscopic HMC”, because MetaHuman Animator not only uses the video for the solve, but also needs the depth information, which an iPhone or a stereo camera record additionally.

Hope that helps
