5 use cases

  • Turn your illustration into an animated 2D avatar

    An agent builds a mesh avatar from your PNG, and you check it in the local editor.

    View prompt
    In the mesh-avatar-studio repository, follow docs/agent-guide.md to create an avatar from <path to your PNG>. Expect a project folder under projects/ that the editor can open. Verify by confirming that Pose test and Lip sync run in the preview.

  • Stream your avatar in OBS with webcam tracking

    Drive the avatar with your face and voice on the Live page and add its stream URL to OBS.

    View prompt
    In the mesh-avatar-studio repository, start the dev server with npm run dev, then open the Live page for <project name>. Expect a Copy OBS URL result that loads in an OBS Browser Source. Verify that the stream view moves when the Live page tracking is active.

  • Try an avatar in the browser without installing anything

    Open the Player in Chrome or Edge and move the sample or your own .mavatar file with your face.

    View prompt
    Open the Mesh Avatar Studio Player in Chrome or Edge and load the bundled sample. Expect the avatar to animate in the page. Verify that blinking and talking appear when the webcam and microphone are on.

  • Share a finished avatar as one .mavatar file

    Export your saved avatar as a single file that another person can import into Studio.

    View prompt
    In the mesh-avatar-studio repository, export the project <project name> as a .mavatar file using the editor. Expect a downloaded archive under 128 MiB. Verify that it imports as a new folder under projects/ and plays in the preview.

  • Add drawn eyes and mouths with Codex

    Have Codex draw closed eyes, vowel mouths and expressions so blinking and talking look more natural.

    View prompt
    In the mesh-avatar-studio repository, use Codex to draw the eye and mouth variants for <project name> as described in the copied editor message. Expect the drawn variants imported into the project. Verify that the editor reloads them and that blinking and vowel mouths use the new images.
