  • LiveLinkFace ARKit Receiver is a Blender add-on that receives facial tracking data from the Live Link Face app on iPhone and applies it to Shape Keys in Blender.
  • The tool allows artists to animate models using their own facial expressions in real-time.
  • Compatible with iPhone Live Link Face (ARKit mode) and Blender 4.5, but not with the Metahuman protocol.
  • Supports real-time preview and is ideal for testing Perfect Sync–compatible models.
  • Setup involves downloading the add-on, activating it in Blender, and configuring the Live Link Face app with the correct IP and port.
  • The add-on uses Apple ARKit’s standard 52 Shape Key names for automatic detection.
  • Common issues include incorrect IP settings, network delays, and Shape Key name mismatches.
  • Target users include artists, facial rig creators, and developers working on Perfect Sync models.
  • Released under the GNU General Public License v3 (GPL-3.0), allowing modification and redistribution.
