Export to Blender

Quick reference for Blender export. For the full walkthrough, see open your recording in Blender.

MediaPipe only, for now

RTMPose 3D data doesn't have a working Blender export yet.

What gets exported​

Hand meshesLeft and right hand keypoints
Face meshFace keypoints
Center of massWhole-body center of mass trajectory
Camera frustumsYour calibration
Ground planeYour calibration's ground-plane alignment (Z = 0)
LightingDefault three-point setup

Troubleshooting​

Blender not detected. Install from blender.org, or set the path manually.

Export fails, missing files. The recording isn't fully processed, not every required .npy file exists yet. Run mocap processing first, see process a recording after the fact.

Addon fails to load. The addon is injected at export time, not installed into Blender's own preferences, so this usually means freemocap_blender_addon isn't available in your Python environment rather than a Blender-side issue.
