MyoSapiens

Learn how to use the MyoSapiens platform and Python SDK.

Welcome to the MyoSapiens documentation. Here you'll learn how to use our platform and Python SDK.

What is MyoSapiens?

MyoLab is developing MyoSapiens – a human-like Embodied AI. Our first focus is to endow MyoSapiens with human motor intelligence grounded in physics and human physiology to enable the next generation of human-aware systems in health, sports, and robotics.

The platform is accessible through a REST API, but the recommended way to interact with it is through the Python SDK (myosdk), which simplifies authentication, file uploads, job management, and result downloads. Learn more about why we built Myo and our approach to unified motion processing.

MyoSapiens SDK (MyoSDK)

Myo SDK is the developer interface designed to expose enterprise grade scalable API access to MyoSapiens evolving capabilities.

Myo SDK-v0.1 / Kinesis

This first release focuses on motion retargeting—mapping existing motion capture data onto consistent, anatomically grounded human kinematics. Myo SDK-v0.1 provides a unified, scalable high-level APIs to transform raw motion data into human-accurate body kinematics, enabling applications in animation, simulation, fitness, robotics, sports, XR, and more. Additional capabilities will expand over time.

Myo SDK-v0.2 / ?

What You'll Learn

Getting Started

Understand what MyoSapiens is and how to install the SDK.

Guides

Step-by-step tutorials for common workflows like account setup and motion retargeting.

Why Myo?

Learn about the problems we solve and how Myo's unified approach simplifies motion processing.

Overview

MyoSapiens provides a cloud-based motion retargeting service that takes your C3D motion capture files and transforms them into animations on 3D characters. The workflow is simple:

  1. Upload your C3D motion capture file and markerset configuration
  2. Select a character from our library
  3. Run a retarget job to map the motion to the character
  4. Download the resulting animation data

All of this can be done programmatically through our Python SDK, which handles the complexity of file uploads, job management, and polling for results. See the Introduction for key concepts like assets and jobs, or jump to the Retargeting Tutorial for a complete example.
