Capture facial performances from any video source

AccuFACE is a video-based AI facial mocap tool designed to capture facial expressions from any footage. When it comes to live webcam performances, AccuFACE is the go-to choice, offering compatibility with standalone USB web cameras or laptops equipped with integrated webcams. It delivers optimal tracking resolution at 720p and a smooth 30 frames per second. Furthermore, the software allows users to easily rotate or mirror the recording, accommodating mobile video feeds from mounted helmet cams.

Users can forego the high costs associated with special mocap equipment and opt for consumer-grade cameras or commonplace mobile phones to create footage. Or, they can choose to directly capture facial animation from recorded videos. AccuFACE empowers remote collaboration by enabling production studios to seamlessly work with professional actors and voice talents from around the world. This liberates animation productivity from equipment dependencies and the limitations of time and location, providing a flexible and efficient solution for content creators.

AccuLIPS: lip-sync enhancer and multilingual enabler

The built-in AccuLIPS engine enables intricate lip and tongue motion where other facial mocap systems fall short. By extracting text data from the voice, AccuLIPS generates an additional viseme track for precise lipsync editing.

If added with corresponding text scripts, the lips detection accuracy can be improved. By cleverly bypassing voice-to-text recognition, AccuLIPS can extend its capabilities to languages beyond English, while free tools are readily available to convert non-English text files into their romanized counterparts.

AccuFACE also captures synchronized audio data and facial animation, enabling the rapid generation of voice-synced animations using audio from the webcam, microphone, or recorded video. Regardless of the source media framerate being set at 24, 30, or 60 fps, the AccuFACE engine will consistently generate audio-synced animations according to the source framerate.

Full-spectrum calibration and mocap refinement

By establishing a neutral baseline and tailoring brow movements for optimal results, AccuFACE can be used to enhance the performer’s expressive capabilities. Calibration profiles can be conveniently saved and reused within the same mocap setup. The versatility of LIVE and VIDEO mode calibrations also allows for effortless alignment between live performers and the sourcing of calibration frames from multiple video files. It presents a comprehensive toolkit designed to tackle typical facial mocap challenges, ultimately bringing artists closer to achieving flawless animation.

LIVE Mode Calibration: Tailor the character’s facial settings to match the live performer with an easy-to-follow guided process, and receive immediate animation feedback for thorough refinement.VIDEO Mode Calibration: When obtaining the ideal calibration poses from a single video source proves challenging, AccuFACE offers the flexibility to search for calibration frames across multiple video files.Strength Balancing: Adapt regional strength adjustments to the actor’s individuality and balance expression intensity.Smooth Filter: Eliminate undesirable spasms from the tracking data as a result of exceeding tracking angles, excessive hair coverage, or uneven lighting and shadowing.Denoise: AccuFACE offers a comprehensive toolkit to address these common challenges, bringing artists several steps closer to achieving flawless animation.Anti-Interference: Cross-region interference and cross-triggering can lead to muddied expressions. AccuFACE interference cancellation can reduce unwanted head, brow, and mouth movements.

Timecode sync for lossless recording

Timecode-based full-frame animation recording, independent of computer performance. Capture up to 60 fps of clean facial animation data without frame drops.

Other Features

Boost or decrease facial blendshape signals sent from AccuFACE tracker.Multi-pass recording for layering or replacing selected facial animation.Compatible with Character Creator’s CC3+ facial rig standard, tools and pipeline for custom character creation.Access to Reallusion digital human and stylized content ecosystems.With iClone Motion LIVE, AccuFACE can sync with body mocap and data gloves for full-body live performance.

SaaS Compliance Leader Launches First-Class SDK Integrations for Google Antigravity, OpenAI Swarm, and OpenAI Assistants API to Meet Strict MiCA and EU AI Act Standards.

LONDON, June 13, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Kakunin, the leading compliance infrastructure platform for autonomous AI agents, today announced the release of first-class SDK integrations for Google Antigravity SDK, OpenAI Swarm, and the OpenAI Assistants API.

Autonomous agents are executing high-value, real-world tasks—but without strict boundaries, they represent a massive security risk,” said Palash Bagchi, Founder, at Kakunin.

As organizations move autonomous AI agents from sandboxes to production, securing the tools they run has become a critical operational hurdle. The new integrations allow developers to cryptographically secure and audit agent actions in real time, meeting the strict requirements of upcoming regulations like the EU AI Act and MiCA.

Preventing Agent Drift at the Tool Layer

Instead of relying on prompt engineering or system instructions—which are susceptible to jailbreaks—Kakunin secures agent tool execution at the cryptographic layer:

Pre-Flight Scope Verification: Validates that an agent possesses the required permission scope (e.g., trade.execute, file.write) before executing local code.Active-Agent Enforcement: Dynamically halts execution if the agent’s underlying X.509 certificate has been revoked or suspended.Tamper-Evident Auditing: Automatically logs session starts, prompts, responses, tool successes, and error anomalies.

Ecosystem Compatibility out of the Box

The new releases bring seamless, code-first integrations to the industry’s leading agent frameworks:

Google Antigravity SDK: Hook-based runtime protection that automatically secures Gemini-powered tool workflows.OpenAI Swarm: A lightweight class wrapper (KakuninSwarm) that dynamically gates multi-agent handoffs and task executions.OpenAI Assistants API: A polling-loop helper (handle_assistants_requires_action) that streamlines safety checks and tool output formatting in a single call.

Beyond these core OpenAI and Google environments, the new releases also extend Kakunin’s cryptographic shield to the broader agent development community. Out-of-the-box templates and shims are now available for LangChain (KakuninToolGuard), LlamaIndex (KakuninFunctionToolGuard), CrewAI (KakuninCrewAgent), and AutoGen (KakuninConversableAgent), alongside native middlewares for Next.js API routes and raw client libraries for Go, TypeScript, and Python.

“Autonomous agents are executing high-value, real-world tasks—but without strict boundaries, they represent a massive security risk,” said Palash Bagchi, Founder, at Kakunin. “By bringing cryptographic X.509 validation directly to Google’s and OpenAI’s agent loops, we are giving developers the peace of mind to deploy agents in highly regulated environments like fintech and healthcare.”

Availability

The new SDK integrations are available immediately:

Python Package: Available on PyPI via pip install kakunin.Playground Notebooks: Developers can test the integrations in 1-click via the official OpenAI Cookbook and Google Gemini Cookbook.Reference Samples: Available on the public Kakunin Samples Repository.
