EasyVtuber

EasyVtuber is 2D avatar animation software that transforms a single static image into a real-time animated character. It functions as a face tracking animation tool and live streaming avatar driver, mapping facial movements from webcams or iOS devices to drive virtual expressions and head motion.

The project distinguishes itself through a neural animation pipeline that includes AI video upscaling and frame interpolation to increase visual smoothness and resolution. It utilizes a transparent video streaming system via Spout2, allowing rendered frames with alpha channels to be sent directly to broadcasting software without the use of green screens.

The software covers a broad range of capabilities, including face tracking integration for depth sensors and webcams, audio-driven motion simulation for lip-syncing and blinking, and performance optimizations such as pose calculation caching and hardware-accelerated inference.
