weight

weight: number;

Blend weight in [0, 1].

CharacterState

Everything the guest says about a character for one frame.

Properties

optional clips?: readonly CharacterClipRequest[];

Explicit clip drives. When present, the locomotion blend is bypassed. Names that match a face clip drive the face layer; the rest drive the body.

expression?

optional expression?: Float32Array<ArrayBufferLike>;

An expression vector. 52 long means ARKit-52 and is composed with blink; expressionSpace.dim long means it is already in the bundle's space and is used as-is.

lookAt?

optional lookAt?: readonly [number, number, number] | null;

World-space point to look at, or null to release the head.

ExpressionSpace

Which space the bundle's expression vector is in.

Face clips are always authored in ARKit-52. A bundle whose head model is GNM wants 383 (or the reduced 68) coefficients instead, so the mapping is a BUNDLE field, not a code constant — two characters in one scene can be in different spaces.

Returns

void

aliasClip()

aliasClip(alias, sourceName): boolean;

Point a second key at an already-registered clip — no copy.

Frame data is SHARED, unlike a body-clip alias, which has to clone because three caches one action per clip object. Face clips are read-only weight tables with no per-clip playback state on them (that lives per key), so two keys over one table is correct here and costs nothing.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`alias`	`string`	The new key.
`sourceName`	`string`	The key that already resolves.

Returns

boolean

Whether alias now resolves.

Returns

void

reset()

Drop every clip and every playback cursor.

Returns

void

Stop a clip, so it restarts from frame 0 next time it is driven.

Parameters

FaceClipPlayerOptions

Options for createFaceClipPlayer.

Properties

now?

optional now?: Clock;

Millisecond clock; defaults to defaultClock.

GeneratedMotionMarker

The aosGeneratedMotion extras a generated clip carries.

Present with keepRootMotion !== true → the clip opted out of root motion, so its pelvis .position is stripped too (play in place). Present with keepRootMotion === true → the authored relative-travel track is kept. Absent → pelvis .position is kept, the behaviour stock and arbitrary custom uploads have always had.

Properties

keepRootMotion?

optional keepRootMotion?: boolean;

Whether the authored pelvis travel track survives the prune.

Set the loop style.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`mode`	`number`	Loop style, e.g. LOOP_ONCE.

Returns

void

isActive()

Whether a gesture envelope is in flight.

play()

Start a gesture, replacing whatever was in flight.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`clipName`	`string`	Name the clip was registered under.
`options?`	`GestureOptions`	Envelope overrides; see GestureOptions.

Returns

boolean

Whether the gesture started; false when it was suppressed.

setExclusiveOverride()

setExclusiveOverride(active): void;

Declare that an exclusive body override owns the skeleton.

A conversational override — generated locomotion, or a performance-classified generated clip — already owns the skeleton exclusively. The base layer zeroes any additive gesture weight while it is active anyway, but STARTING a new envelope under one would leave it primed to pop back in for the tail of its fade-out once the override releases. So play() is suppressed while this is set. Dev/test one-shots (a prefab Test button, a clip preview) must NOT set it, which is why this is an explicit opt-in rather than "any clip is playing".

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`active`	`boolean`	Whether an exclusive override currently owns the skeleton.

Returns

void

stop()

stop(): void;

Clear the channel without touching the action.

Returns

void

  };
};

Anything moveToActor can follow.

Quat

type Quat = readonly number[];

A quaternion as four numbers in xyzw order, matching three's memory layout.

RestPose

type RestPose = Map<string, RestPoseEntry>;

Rest transforms by node name.

RootMode

type RootMode = "travel" | "lock";

How the pelvis translation is handled.

travel builds the pelvis position track so the clip locomotes — walk and jump leave the ground. lock skips it so the motion plays IN PLACE, which is the shape a gesture wants: the pelvis stays at rest and the clip can layer additively over the base pose without dragging the body across the floor. Bone rotations are identical either way.

The identity rotation.

IDLE_CHARACTER_STATE

const LOOP_ONCE: 2200 = 2200;

three's LoopOnce, as a number, for the same reason.

PACKAGE

const PACKAGE: "@aosengine/animation";

Package identity marker for @aosengine/animation.

Example

import { PACKAGE } from '@aosengine/animation';

console.log(PACKAGE); // '@aosengine/animation'

SM_TRANSITION_MS

const SM_TRANSITION_MS: 300 = 300;

The crossfade length the POC hard-coded in smRuntime, in milliseconds.

Functions

applyWeights()

function applyWeights(
   weights, 
   loop, 
   speed, 
   actions, 
   constants?
): void;

Apply evaluated weights to a set of mixer actions.

Every action absent from weights, or at weight <= 0, is stopped (or zeroed if it was not running). Present actions get their loop style, clamp flag and time scale written ONLY when they change — the steady-state optimisation the POC's GraphEvaluator carried, because setLoop on a running action resets its loop counter and a per-frame write made long non-looping clips restart.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`weights`	`ReadonlyMap`<`string`, `number`> \| `null`	Clip name to weight, or null to stop everything.
`loop`	`ReadonlyMap`<`string`, `boolean`> \| `null`	Clip name to loop flag; a missing entry means "loop".
`speed`	`ReadonlyMap`<`string`, `number`> \| `null`	Clip name to time scale; a missing entry means 1.
`actions`	`ReadonlyMap`<`string`, `WeightedActionLike`>	Registered actions by clip name.
`constants`	`LoopConstants`	three's loop constants; defaults match three r186.

Returns

void

approachAngle()

function approachAngle(
   current, 
   target, 
   rate, 
   dt
): number;

Move current toward target along the shortest arc, framerate-corrected.

Exponential follow rather than a naive lerp: e^(-rate·2dt) is exactly (e^(-rate·dt))², so one 1/30 s step and two 1/60 s steps land in the same place. A dt-naive lerp drifts with the frame rate, which showed up as the head tracking visibly faster on a fast machine.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`current`	`number`	Current angle in radians.
`target`	`number`	Target angle in radians.
`rate`	`number`	Follow rate in 1/seconds; larger is snappier.
`dt`	`number`	Delta time in seconds.

Returns

number

The new angle, wrapped into (-π, π].

arkitIndex()

function arkitIndex(name): number;

Index of an ARKit channel by name, or -1 when the name is not an ARKit one.

Returns

number

The channel index in [0, 52), or -1.

bakeAdditive()

Bake clip into an additive delta IN PLACE, per the resolved settings.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`clip`	`AnimationClip`	The clip, mutated in place.
`settings`	`AdditiveSettings` \| `null`	The authored additive settings, or null for the historical local-space / own-frame-0 default.
`ctx`	`AdditiveBakeContext`	What the bake may read; see AdditiveBakeContext.

Returns

void

blendLocomotion()

function blendLocomotion(
   sorted, 
   speed, 
   out
): LocomotionBlend;

Pick and mix the two clips bracketing speed.

Below the slowest clip and above the fastest one the blend clamps to that clip — an idle at speed 0 and a run at 4 m/s bound the space — and only the time scale keeps changing.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`sorted`	readonly `LocomotionClipMeta`[]	Clips ordered by ascending speed, from sortLocomotionClips.
`speed`	`number`	Planar ground speed in metres per second.
`out`	`LocomotionBlend`	Result written in place, from createLocomotionBlend.

Returns

out.

boneMapFromJson()

function boneMapFromJson(table): BoneNameMap;

Build an AnimationClip bound to a live rig from a generated tracks payload.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`tracks`	`BodyMotionTracks`	The payload; see BodyMotionTracks.

Build a child -> parent node-name map from the rig hierarchy.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`root`	`Object3D`	The rig root.

Returns

Map<string, string>

Child node name to parent node name.

buildRestPose()

function buildRestPose(root): RestPose;

Read the rig's rest (bind) pose straight off the loaded rig root.

At load time — before the mixer plays anything — every bone sits at its rest local transform, which is exactly Unreal's "Skeleton Reference Pose".

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`root`	`Object3D`	The rig root, freshly loaded and not yet posed.

Returns

RestPose

Rest transforms by node name.

clampPitch()

function clampPitch(rawPitch, maxPitch): number;

Clamp a pitch to [-maxPitch, maxPitch] after wrapping it.

Pitch has no body-relative frame to fight over — the torso does not pitch in locomotion — so this is the plain symmetric clamp the yaw path cannot use.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`rawPitch`	`number`	Desired look pitch in radians; positive looks up.
`maxPitch`	`number`	Max head pitch (radians, >= 0).

Returns

number

The clamped pitch.

clampYawToBody()

function clampYawToBody(
   rawYaw, 
   bodyYaw, 
   maxYaw
): number;

Clamp the desired world yaw to within ±maxYaw of the body's forward yaw, and return the result RELATIVE to the body (so the caller can smooth it and then re-add bodyYaw to get the world-space look direction).

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`rawYaw`	`number`	Desired look yaw in world space (radians; 0 = +Z).
`bodyYaw`	`number`	Body forward yaw in world space (radians).
`maxYaw`	`number`	Max head deviation from the body (radians, >= 0).

Returns

number

Clamped yaw relative to the body forward, in [-maxYaw, maxYaw].

computeRootDelta()

function computeRootDelta(tracks?): [number, number] | null;

Compute the [dx, dz] world-metre XZ root travel — frame-last minus frame-0 — from a generated tracks payload's root stream.

This is the root-motion commit: when a travelling clip finishes, the character must be MOVED by this delta so the resuming base pose continues from the destination instead of snapping back to where the clip started. Y is dropped because the floor owns it.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`tracks?`	\| `Pick`<`BodyMotionTracks`, `"root"` \| `"frames"`> \| `null`	A payload, or any object carrying `root` and `frames`.

Returns

[number, number] | null

[dx, dz], or null with fewer than two frames (nothing to commit).

A fresh MovementComponent; there is no shared singleton.

createSMHandler()

function createSMHandler(): NodeHandler;

The stateMachine node handler, for injection into the dispatcher.

Create a fresh per-state-machine state object.

Returns

   out?, 
   handlers?
): EvalAccumulator;

Evaluate a body graph for one frame.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default value	Description
`graph`	`BodyGraph`	`undefined`	The graph. Its `finalPose` node is the root; the first edge into it is the pose that is evaluated.
`rt`	`GraphRuntime`	`undefined`	Runtime context; `valueCache` is cleared here, because one call is one logical frame and stale cache entries would freeze a wired alpha.
`out`	`EvalAccumulator`	`...`	Accumulators to fill. Cleared first. Omit to allocate fresh ones.
`handlers`	`NodeHandlers`	`DEFAULT_HANDLERS`	Node-type overrides; defaults to the built-in state machine.

Returns

number

The pitch in radians.

planarSpeed()

function planarSpeed(state): number;

Planar (XZ) speed of a state's velocity.

pruneBodyClipTracks()

function pruneBodyClipTracks(
   clip, 
   sceneNodes, 
   options?
): PruneReport;

Drop every track of clip that cannot (or should not) bind to sceneNodes.

pelvis.scale is always stripped — it is the rig's metres/centimetres scale defence, and a stationary avatar never needs it. pelvis.position is kept by default; a generated motion that opted OUT of root motion strips it too so the clip plays in place.

Parameters

out.

rebindLocalRotation()

function rebindLocalRotation(
   qSource, 
   frames, 
   out
): number[];

Rebind one local rotation from the source rest frame into the target's.

The formula, in model space:

text

q_target_local = inv(P_dst) * P_src * q_source_local * inv(R_src) * R_dst

where R is a bone's rest rotation and P its parent's, both in model space. It has the two properties that make a retarget correct:

identical skeletons are a no-op — inv(P)·P·q·inv(R)·R = q;
a source pose AT REST maps to the TARGET's rest pose, whatever the two rest poses are, so a retargeted clip starts from the target's own bind pose rather than injecting the source rig's A-pose/T-pose difference as a constant offset into every frame.

The second property is the whole point: skipping it is why naively renamed Mixamo clips leave a character with permanently drooping shoulders.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`qSource`	`Quat`	Local rotation from the source clip.
`frames`	`RestFrames`	Rest orientations of the bone in both skeletons.
`out`	`number`[]	Four-element output, written in place.

Returns

number[]

`frames`	`RestFrames`	Rest orientations of the bone in both skeletons.

Returns

Float32Array<ArrayBufferLike> | number[]

values, for chaining.

resolveAdditiveSettings()

function resolveAdditiveSettings(settings?): ResolvedAdditiveSettings;

Resolve a possibly-missing or partial settings object into a concrete spec.

Clips that are additive but carry no explicit config fall back to the historical behaviour: local space, referenced against frame 0 of themselves, i.e. a bare makeClipAdditive(clip) call.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`settings?`	`AdditiveSettings` \| `null`	The authored settings, or null.

Returns

ResolvedAdditiveSettings

The resolved spec.

scalePositionTrack()

function scalePositionTrack(values, ratio): Float32Array<ArrayBufferLike> | number[];

Scale a position track by the hip-height ratio between the two rigs.

Root translation is the one track that does not survive a pure rotation rebind: a 1.9 m source actor's pelvis travels further per stride than a 1.6 m target's, so the target would skate. Scaling by dstHipHeight / srcHipHeight makes the stride proportional to the legs that take it.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`values`	`Float32Array`<`ArrayBufferLike`> \| `number`[]	Flat `xyz` stream, three floats per key; rewritten in place.
`ratio`	`number`	`dstHipHeight / srcHipHeight`.

Returns

string | null

The field, or null when it is missing or not a non-empty string.

strList()

function strList(data, key): readonly string[];

Read a string array field, e.g. a state's clips.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`data`	`Readonly`<`Record`<`string`, `unknown`>> \| `undefined`	Authored payload, possibly undefined.
`key`	`string`	Field name.

Returns

readonly string[]

The strings, or an empty array.

timeScaleFor()

function timeScaleFor(speed, clipSpeed): number;

The playback rate that matches a clip's stride to the ground speed.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`speed`	`number`	Actual ground speed.
`clipSpeed`	`number`	The clip's authored speed.

A rate in [0.5, 2], or 1 when the clip is an in-place idle.

validateCharacterState()

function validateCharacterState(value): CharacterState;

Validate an unknown value as a CharacterState.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`value`	`unknown`	The candidate, typically decoded from the guest's frame output.

Returns

CharacterState

A validated state. Array fields are copied; the expressionFloat32Array is NOT copied, because it is the hot path and the guest owns a stable buffer for it.

Throws

Describing the first field that is wrong.

validateLocomotionIndex()

function validateLocomotionIndex(value): LocomotionIndex;

Validate an unknown value as a LocomotionIndex.

locomotion.json is produced by an offline tool and shipped as an asset, so it is untrusted input by the time it reaches the runtime.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`value`	`unknown`	Parsed JSON.

Returns

LocomotionIndex

The validated index.

Throws

When the shape is wrong.

writeLocomotionWeights()

function writeLocomotionWeights(
   blend, 
   weights, 
   speeds
): void;

Write a blend result into the weight / speed maps the base layer applies.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`blend`	`LocomotionBlend`	A result from blendLocomotion.
`weights`	`Map`<`string`, `number`>	Cleared and filled with clip name to weight.
`speeds`	`Map`<`string`, `number`>	Cleared and filled with clip name to time scale.

Returns

void

yawTo()

function yawTo(dx, dz): number;

World-space yaw of the direction (dx, dz), matching three's +Z forward.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`dx`	`number`	World-space X offset from the head to the look target.
`dz`	`number`	World-space Z offset from the head to the look target.

Returns

number

The yaw in radians, 0 when the target is dead ahead on +Z.
