New Release: iClone Two-Way Live Sync to NVIDIA Omniverse

Dear iClone Users,

Reallusion has released the latest iClone Connector for NVIDIA Omniverse™. The updated Connector allows a two-way real-time USD synchronization between iClone 8 and Omniverse, giving users a straightforward character animation pipeline to Omniverse applications. With the two-way Live Sync to Omniverse, users have more intuitive control over the creation process, allowing them to significantly reduce workflow and increase productivity. This is particularly beneficial for industrial visualization projects consisting of large 3D crowds and animations.

What’s New

Already added the capability of a full 3D animation system to NVIDIA Omniverse™, the iClone Omniverse Connector now provides users higher productivity with Live Sync, featuring real-time animation review and two-way workflow. Combining iClone and Omniverse, individuals or design teams can easily create, animate, and deploy 3D characters for digital twins and business simulations, and collaborate inside Omniverse.

iClone is the fastest real-time 3D animation software, helping users easily produce professional animations for films, previsualization, simulation, video, and games. 3D production on Omniverse becomes accessible for all levels of users when facial performance, character animation, mocap production, scene design, and cinematic storytelling are blended seamlessly inside iClone’s environment. Creators can establish live sync between iClone Connector and Omniverse with just a few clicks and immediately see the results.

Realtime Preview & Full-Frame Transfer

  • Motion Editing & Preview

    • Simultaneous real-time live preview for animation editing of the face and body.
    • Animate by applying iClone’s premade motions or use the handy editing tools.
    • Character or object interaction are made simple with Reach Target constraints. https://forum.reallusion.com/uploads/images/539f0d24-a980-4ecd-9876-f916.jpg

    • Supports bone and morph animations for 3D characters.
    • Animate transformations for props, lights, and cameras.https://forum.reallusion.com/uploads/images/68df9eb9-3075-44c1-9e6a-45d2.jpg

Intuitive Two-Way Production Workflow

  • Selectively import Omniverse scene data/props as references for iClone character alignment or object interaction.
  • Two-way light creation and property control.
  • Synchronize camera shots and switches in iClone for Omniverse cinematography.

Collaboration with Business Simulation

Deploying digital humans for virtual productions with iClone Live Sync to Omnivese is not only productive but sufficient. Once users enter the 100% free, open platform of NVIDIA Omniverse™, they can enjoy all the advantages of Ray Tracing, with greater speed and an open collaboration platform compatible with major 3rd-party solutions. Additionally, Omniverse includes the latest AI technologies, such as Audio2Face audio-to-animation application, fast GPU rendering, denoise, and real-time SSS shader. All of these features allow advanced character animation for simulation.
