# 🎭 MotionBERT MoCap Studio

Convert any single-person video into a full-body **motion capture animation** exported as:

| File | Use |
|------|-----|
| `motion_capture.glb` | Blender armature import / three.js / Godot import |
| `animation.tres` | Godot 4 AnimationLibrary — text resource |
| `animation.res` | Godot 4 AnimationLibrary — binary resource |

> ⏱ **CPU space**: processing takes ~3-8 minutes per video depending on length.  
> Upload a short clip (5-15 seconds) for the fastest results.
