Revealing How CodeMiko Is Made

[@CodeMiko]

Come hang out with me on twitch!! www.twitch.tv/CodeMiko

[@morph-ONE]

@CodeMiko you are such an amazing person. It’s wonderful just to see your prospects. My fiancé loves your videos even more than me. More people should inspire to be more like you. You’re innovative and funny I hope you continue to keep smiles on peoples faces for generations 😎

[@billkillernic]

lol you are hotter than your avatar :P

[@mohanbennett6953]

Its amazing to watch your journey and growth, such a lovely human being. Fascinating and funny :)

[@adamdavidsonx]

I really enjoyed learning how you create all this.

[@beatemero6718]

No! Begone vr thot!

[@Subjectivity13]

I hope she makes a ton of money off of all this hard work someday. Not sure what all those bits have amounted to on Twitch, but she's put so much into this, and it's really impressive. It's definitely the right time for this to take off, if there was just a practical application for regular people to use it.

[@realpugtail]

haha, Oh, she makes bank.

[@vickihopsin128]

She spends like 2,000$ a month on doordash I'm sure she's doing swell 😂

[@Eddy9lives]

Bruh she told us how much that avatar costs 😹 it is not beginner friendly! And she wasn’t fazed by the cost

Man, Miko has already revolutionized 2020s. These inputs are eternal.

[@albertbatfinder5240]

It’s interesting how the more you love Miko, the more you want to discover Technician. Or at least that’s how it is with me.

[@mannywater2051]

Meeeee tooooo!!! What a woman. 🤤

[@frydfish4934]

Respect privacy if she wants it tho

[@OGPurePhoenix]

I've always liked technician more, just something about the mindset behind all this that.... Piqued my interest. Miko is just a funny toy to me

[@iyankku]

@@mannywater2051 bro u can be creepy in silence and then it's not creepy c'mon

[@noleafedclovers1725]

can somebody explain the miko/technician thing like are they not the same thing

[@RikkTheGaijin]

I work for a AAA game studio. I've been following this channel for a while now, and its outstanding what kind of result a single person can do at home. CodeMiko and Xanadu are the two most impressive V-Tuber as today. However the cost of all the gear needed to achieve this quality is still prohibitive for most people. Hopefully in the near future the tech will continue to improve and the costs will drop, especially if they want everyone to be in the Metaverse. Keep up the good work!

[@terrydactyl2077]

I’m out of the loop with streamers so I don’t know this person. But does she make all the software etc herself?

[@strayiggytv]

Like really the stuff you see in playstation VR chat is pretty impressive if you think about it.

[@GruppeSechs]

That's what I keep saying about game dev software becoming more user-friendly so a single person can feasibly make a decently presentable 3D game, but that's just a cover for my laziness.

[@kattz9051]

@@terrydactyl2077 the equipment, no. They are just trackers and cameras and stuff that anyone can buy (though some are costly). The software aspect tho, she did all herself with unreal engine 4 among other things. She's migrating to UE5 soon which is part of why she's doing this tech demo. EDIT: sorry I should have said she *and her team* do everything software related themselves. She's not a solo act, but Codemiko/the Mikoverse usually gets referred to as one entity, "code miko"

[@MichaelTE]

This tech seems to be dropping in price pretty quick, which is great considering with the trackers, headgear, cameras/phone, software, and a computer that can run it all, you're currently looking at, what, $10K? I think that's out of pretty much every streamer's price range right now.

[@incrediblystupid9244]

Are you under the impression that she codes and designs this incredible tech, or is it just her putting on the gear and briefly explaining how some of it reacts that gives you the genius read on her? lol

[@MaximumNewbage]

Love these behind the scenes snippets. I think it'd be cool to see more stuff with your technician persona in the spotlight.

[@skeetsmcgrew3282]

Her streams actually have quite a bit of Technician, its just not as marketable on KZbin

[@MaximumNewbage]

@@skeetsmcgrew3282 Dang. Too bad I don't really have time to watch streams. KZbin clips are much better/easier to consume for me.

[@stevenbaase]

When you dream of the future as a child and see CodeMiko as a selfmade sentient AI with capability to be self aware and lead an entire overcity... then growing up and seeing that she is being created during this time and actually exists. I'm so lucky to exist along side everything in the now, i love you all

[@UntilDreams]

Detroit: become human

[@Inertia888]

And we will soon be seeing VR that is so realistic, it will be tricking our brains into believing that we actually feel the things that we touch and experience. That will only improve over the next couple years-decade. And on top of that, the digital world is starting to attract Fortune 500 corporations for investment on virtual properties. Where this will end up is anyone's guess, but it will for sure be amazing!!! The 2020s~2030s are going to make the 1990s~2000s look like black and white television in comparison.

[@mannywater2051]

@@Inertia888 wooohoo! Yiiipeee! I can't wait.

[@RaelagDidEverythingRight]

Living in a tiny house that just has a bed and advanced vr tools, using them you control an exoskeleton that is your "avatar" in the society outside, you can look however you want, and be whoever you want to be, since you will feel everything the machine feels through advanced receptors which send over the senses through the internet

[@Pez-San]

Big respect for technician

[@LyingTube]

The sheer amount of finance involved in getting Miko to work even half as well as she does is staggering.

[@SanOcelotl]

its not that crazy, if you already have a half descent pc and a phone just need to invest in the mocap stuff, wich isn't even needed if you wont me moving arround, doing the models, animations and set it up is a lot of work but you can use free tools all the way

[@bruhmcbro2704]

I've never seen anything like this that's so advanced and works so well. You're honestly a genius

[@TheInfamousDope]

If you like that go check AI Angel, Xanadu...There are a lot of Vtubers like that out there

[@alienteknology5390]

I have the greatest respect for anyone with this sort of passion & originality. Not to mention vision. Whatever you plans I hope you continue entertaining us for many years to come.

Pure Horror when she takes of the trackers.

It's like a marionette carelessly tossed on the floor... except the face still moves... 😮

[@robinsonsteve62]

I hope you have people around you that remind you of how amazing this truly is and what you have created, I mean I'm 34 years old and I think about the graphics when I was a kids vs what you have created here.

[@moiseslozano6906]

that's amazing and very kind of you that you are developing an app/software for other people to onboard on being a VTuber, I think we simply are just scratching the surface on what people can do with the medium.

[@JimmysCubicle]

I've always been amazed By codemiko and the effort she puts in. The process of devving, engineering, and rigging.... just amazed at her talent.

[@thezambianprince3893]

Twas very educational. Thanks for the explanation and video. Gives me motivation to continue with my craft. Wishing you both the best

[@masterpig5s]

This is a project that I’ve followed for a long time. It’s the kind of things I’d love to put resources into making myself but with a laptop that can’t run stuff like this, it’s all notes and ideas for another time.

[@masterpig5s]

Then again, I have recently thought about using another places computer and having a regularly backed up usb. Also I want to dabble in eye tracking for a project between project that this has just reminded me of. Maybe I could do that there. Huh

[@Joseph32547]

Thanks for the peek behind the scenes!

[@jamescurfman3284]

Hey, look, Miko is a REAL contortionist!!! lol Hey, Technician, I LOVE that shade of purple you have for the hair and outfit, it's AWESOME! You really are absolutely BRILLIANT! I could never have managed to do this stuff! Luv ya!

I genuinely can't believe how brilliant you are. This is incredible. The amount of accuracy and programming must have been through the roof hard or tidious to complete. Always love tech stuff.

[@MorgorDre]

As a techie I find it fascinating what is possible. As an orwellist I condemn this fake reality.

[@RealDevastatia]

Same, but since this artist isn't trying to scam anybody into thinking the avatar is a real person, it seems harmless enough.

[@stevenmacdonald9619]

Yesterday I learned Technician and my Mum share a birthday, so now I'm freaked by this video today, which virtually started with Ave Maria, which was my Mum's most special piece of classical music. Ave Maria in English, is Mother's Love 😮 Plus Technician is CodeMiko's Mum. I think CodeMiko's Dad is a Toaster, or maybe even an overhead power cable? It's rude to ask. Bless them.

[@AT-rr2xw]

[@YeeeItsMe]

Lol what? I’m not even going to try and process the 2nd half of that statement but have a good day man 👍🏼

[@stevenmacdonald9619]

@@YeeeItsMe Have you ever seen the film 'Short Circuit?' The robot Johnny Five comes out with an insult to another machine that goes...... 'Your Mama was a snowblower!' I was goofing off about the combination of technology, when compared to that of procreation. If you code an avatar, is that not conception? There is a high likelihood that existing programmes that Technician were coded by men, and if you added up all that time, and singled out the male developer that put most time and data into that coding, could technically, and loosely could be considered CodeMiko's Dad, or at least a close relation. It was just simpler and quicker to guess toaster and power cable, because I was being silly. It's very hard for me, when I too suffer ADHD, to remain an adult for all 24hrs of a day. Forgive me, for sometimes, I am simply entertaining myself, and I don't care whether others get me. Then I look at how I write in detail, and remember that last sentence is a bullshit cope. I care greatly about not being misunderstood. It goes without saying.... I am a clown, not a comedian. You could have also asked..... what do you mean? We would still have arrived here, about......now 👍

[@stevenmacdonald9619]

@@AT-rr2xw Awwwww that's really cute. Though equally, when CodeMiko interviewed Technician, and the greetings were.... Hey Bitch!! Hey Whore!!

[@Swenglish]

Miko and her world and its interactivities are largely Technician's creation. The bare bones game engine (Unreal Engine 4) and motion capture tools are not. The 3D assets are a mix of Technician's own models and stuff from the asset marketplace. She did hire a small team to help out with some of the development work after months and months of doing it all alone, but I believe she still does most of it.

[@davidedwardsme]

Code Miko is a kitbash of Daz 3d models .. there was a post floating around a while ago that broke down the models used and links to the assets on the Daz store.

[@incrediblystupid9244]

The persona, ideas, and cosmetic alterations to the model are primarily hers. But pretty much everything else and the main thing people are in awe of is the result of her development team and the past work of other developments. The magic just wouldn't be their without the technology, despite the fun persona

[@KindredEmotions]

Miko didn't even have to go this hard on her vtuber avatar and yet still put more work into it than the others. Respect.

We're so far from the reality that people want in meta verse, people want to feel the stuff they are experiencing... like let's say purchasing a car, seating inside of it and smelling the new car seat, without actually doing any of it... that's what people want, and that's the difficultly of it. Or getting shot in the game, feeling the pain without suffering the consequences. And with one button reset it all from the start

You may be one of the first to do this.. but this will become the norm in time!! This in a game or a game world will enable people to have a level of interaction and immersion that today seems impossible hey!!

Like before I was going to go to bed I got onto Discord to share some of the clips with the boys I chat with and I imagine it made their day as it made mine hey!!

[@TheAkashicTraveller]

Inertial systems probably could work much better than they do. One route I can think of would be to take inspiration form the human body with proprioception. The basic idea would be to add some sensors to allow it to continuously self calibrate, for example with the hand glove you add buttons or touch sensors to the fingertips that way everytime you clap it can self calibrate.

[@crhu319]

Yes it's coming.
