I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Community Lead at n8n.
good to see BBB still popping up now and then.
also, pretty cool tech demo. the skirt thing reminds me of the anime “Problem Children are coming from another world, Aren’t They?”
would it be possible to set up some armature drivers with a camera to do this kind of thing just for animation purposes rather than as part of an interactive 3d thing?
Cool! it’s good to see blender’s influence spreading out to professional applications.

If anyone is interested… the video mentioned that the source code for Unity was available for download. Here’s a direct link to the project’s website:
