MetaHuman Live Link

Live Link is Unreal's generic real-time data bus: sources push timestamped frames for named subjects, each subject has a role that defines its data layout, and consumers (AnimBPs, components, Sequencer) evaluate the latest or time-synced frame every tick. The MetaHuman Live Link plugin (Engine/Plugins/MetaHuman/MetaHumanLiveLink/) adds sources that produce MetaHuman facial animation — the same raw-control curves a MetaHuman Animator performance produces — either by running the realtime solver locally on webcam/microphone input or by receiving it from the Live Link Face iOS app.
