Intoduction

Oof

— Epsilion

The VRIK component is used to configure Inverse Kinematics on an avatar, for posing joints based on the position of IK Targets such as a VR HMD, hand tracking, or Vive Trackers

This component is automatically configured when importing a mesh with a detectable humanoid rig, and generally should not be modified unless you know what you are doing.

Documentation on this component may take some time, as it is very complex, and not commonly used. The basis for this component seems to be the VRIK solver developed by Final IK.

Usage

All weight values are 1-0, excluding clamps which are inverted 0-1. You can overdrive some of them with interesting results.

DebugVisuals	Bool	Enables Debug visuals
PlantFeet	Bool	When enabled feet positions will be prioritized over anything else including HeadTarget. (Causes issues with walking) If true, will keep the toes planted even if the HeadTarget is out of reach, so this can cause the camera to exit the head if it is too high for the model to reach.
spine.Initiated	Bool
spine.HeadTarget	Slot	Typically the position and rotation of the HMD tracker. Note: on my own avatar, this is set to null. It's possible that this value isn't used, and instead the Head slot of the User is used.
spine.PelvisTarget	Slot	Typically the position and rotation of the hip tracker. Note: on my own avatar, this is set to null. It's possible that this value isn't used, and instead the hip tracker slot of the User is used.

spine.RotationWeight	Float	Rotational weight of the HeadTarget.
spine.PelvisPositionWeight	Float	Positional weight of the PelvisTarget.

Value at time 2 represents stretching amount at the point where distance to the target is double the arm length. Value represents the amount of stretching. Linear stretching would be achieved with a linear curve going up by 45 degrees. Increase the range of stretching by moving the last key up and right at the same amount. Smoothing in the curve can help reduce elbow snapping (start stretching the arm slightly before target distance reaches arm length).
