Pose Animator is a free and open source implementation showcasing how you can animated an SVG avatar using either webcam driven face and bone data, or from analyzing a static image.  On the GitHub repository<\/a>, Pose Animator is described accordingly:<\/p>\n

\n

Pose Animator takes a 2D vector illustration and animates its containing curves in real-time based on the recognition result from PoseNet and FaceMesh. It borrows the idea of skeleton-based animation from computer graphics and applies it to vector characters.<\/p>\n

This is not an officially supported Google product.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The GitHub page also includes two demos.  The first one<\/a> showcases using a camera to control an avatar, while the second one<\/a> showcases how to accomplish the same thing with a static image.  Please note there a currently a couple bugs that need to be addressed if you build this from source yourself, with the resolution details available here<\/a>.  I also walk through the process of building and running Pose Animator in the video<\/a> below.<\/p>\n
