iPhone X Face Motion Capture into Houdini (Projection mapping)

Using iPhone X's TrueDepth Camera and Xcode ARKit to fetch data and write into a custom file.
On the Houdini side, create a Python SOP to import custom file and parse it to what it should be.

This is amazing Eli! Thanks so much! One question though. I got the faceData.txt file and the frames from recording from my iPhone X onto my computer and got Houdini. Now how do I import it into Houdini and animate it?

hey Elisha, this is really cool ! Is the Python SOP reading the data stream in real time from the iPhone ? Or did you captured with the iPhone, save data on the hard drive, read back in Houdini and flipbooked ?

Is the iphone X necessary - i have a 6s...any chance that will work too?
