ARKit Face Device component

Important

Support for the Unity Live Capture package is scheduled to end as of Unity 6.1.

The ARKit Face Device is a Live Capture Device that records and applies, in real time, face properties from a connected Client Device to an ARKit Face Actor.

The ARKit Face Device communicates with a specific connected Client Device (Companion App installed on a physical mobile device) in order to retrieve the face properties.

Bindings

Property	Function
Client Device	The connected Client Device to use. The selection list reflects the list of Clients that are currently connected to the Server in the Connections window.
Actor	The target ARKit Face Actor to animate.

Channels

This section allows you to control which channels to activate or deactivate for recording when the Take Recorder is in Live mode.

Each channel represents a face property that you might want to animate separately from the others during the recording of a take:

• Blend Shapes
• Head Position
• Head Rotation
• Eyes

Keyframe Reduction

Allows you to adjust the level of keyframe reduction applied to your recordings. Higher values produce smaller files but might affect the recorded animation curve accuracy.

Property	Function
Position Error	The relative tolerance (in percent) for reducing position keyframes.
Rotation Error	The tolerance (in degrees) for reducing rotation keyframes.
Blend Shape Error	The relative tolerance (in percent) for reducing blend shape keyframes.
