it would be great if be available iPhone X camera tracking as Motion Live Gear for facial capture ... same method that used for Crazy Talk called "Live Face" ...
i believe that Faceshift tech inside iPhone X is better than Faceware ...

Betcha $1K that RL won't do anything to screw up their partnership with Faceware.

this video shows the difference of the power of iPhone X with Faceware ...
iPhone X in any condition, any angles, wireless, noise free, best hardware, 2 in 1!! pay money for awesome phone + awesome facial capture :]

Oh, I don't doubt it -- I'm just saying, not gonna happen in iClone.  You can take that to the bank.

so, is it possible to use CrazyTalk for 3d facial animation??

CrazyTalk 8 supports both 2D and 3D facial animation. 3D characters can be created from one of two facial photos. However you can't use facial mocap with CrazyTalk 8. Facial animation can be created automatically when loading the audio file, or you can manually create the animation using the puppeteering tools.

well, seems that be better to using simpler way ... i mean motion live faceware
but i hope to see iphone method for motion live ...

You are absolutely right about this. I am currently asking Reallusion why CrazyTalk Animator 3 has a plug-in built specifically for the Iphone X's incredible 3d motion capture abilities and it is not being utilised within Iclone for what it was made for, 3D facial capture using its depth camera.
There little doubt in my mind that the Iphone X provides more accurate and reliable motion capture data than the system currently being used by faceware, and bearing in mind Reallusion have already provided a plug-in for CrazyTalk, it seems nonsensical not to do this for Iclone....it can only make Iclone an even more invaluable tool to use.

now its time to say goodbye to noisy faceware :]

Yeah, I saw that but what I was referring to was your showing that OTHER plugin (which isn't going to be supported).  So, yes, we can use our iPhone X (which I love) but I'm going to predict right now it will be VERY expensive, just as much as Faceware (perhaps more).  So -- again, you pays your money, you takes your chances.

(However, I'll be the first to be happy if it's not -- although I'm not so sure about the quality. The examples I saw were nowhere near as good as the Faceware plugin).
