Turning myself into a Humanoid Pendulum in Blender using Mocap

In this video I finally get to try my own motion capture suit! For many years I've been fascinated by this pendulum wave effect ( • 10 Mesmerizing Glowing Pendulums ), and for a long time I've wanted to see this effect with a more intricate motion than a simple sine wave made by pendulums. So in this video, I'll be using a motion capture suit to record my own movements in my studio, and turn that into a seamlessly looping pendulum animation. Then to figure out the math behind all of this, I made my own Pendulum Wave Calculator using LLMs, so the perfectly timed data can be exported as a python script that animates the .blend file, and a MIDI-file that animates the music.
