## Overview

Kimodo is a **ki**nematic **mo**tion **d**iffusi**o**n model trained on a large-scale (700 hours) commercially-friendly optical motion capture dataset. The model generates high-quality 3D human and robot motions, and is controlled through text prompts and an extensive set of constraints such as full-body pose keyframes, end-effector positions/rotations, 2D paths, and 2D waypoints. See the [project page](https://research.nvidia.com/labs/sil/projects/kimodo/) for details.
