New Feature ③ Addition of Lower Body Actions for Characters
In Contemporary style, a <emstrong>feature to set actions only for the lower body of the character has been added. In addition to the conventional full-body actions, it is now possible to set movements only for the lower body, such as sitting and crossing legs, enabling more natural movements and expressions.
New Feature ④ Addition of Food Character Templates
Templates of animated characters based on ingredients and drinks have been added.
These template characters can be copied and incorporated into other animations for use. Like traditional characters, you can also set Actions (movements) and Expressions (facial expressions) for these characters.
Also, if you are using the Enterprise plan or Agency plan, you can use the "Add Logo" feature to change the character in this template to your favorite original character.
New Feature ⑤ Implementation of SCORM Export Function
It is now possible to export content compatible with SCORM, the standard specification for e-learning content. Since this specification is supported by many Learning Management Systems (LMS), you can track the learning history of Vyond animations (such as course completion status and study time).
This feature will be available on the Enterprise plan starting August 28.
New Feature ⑥ Addition of Medical Templates
Templates specialized for medical settings and healthcare-related scenes have been added. They can be used for various purposes such as training materials for medical professionals, treatment explanations for patients, and health awareness activities.
