FlowHMR is a research model for recovering 3D human motion from monocular video. It combines flow matching with physics-based reinforcement learning (GRPO) so that the recovered motion is both faithful to the video and physically plausible. The project page is titled "Physically Plausible Motion Capture from Video" and an arXiv preprint (2026) is cited.
The project page shows applications: retargeting captured motion to a Unitree G1 humanoid robot (using GMR, with SONIC tracking the motions in physics simulation), animation creation with scene reconstruction and retargeting, and text-to-motion by generating a video from a prompt and then capturing the motion from it. A YouTube creator summary says code, models and a Hugging Face demo were released, but the provided pages did not include those links, so they are not listed here.
It is aimed at researchers and developers working on character animation, motion capture and humanoid robotics. The vendor and licence are not stated in the provided material.
