Humanoid Avatar

Unity’s Animation System has special features for working with humanoid characters. Because humanoid characters are so common in games, Unity provides a specialized workflow, and an extended tool set for humanoid animationsAn animation using humanoid skeletons. Humanoid models generally have the same basic structure, representing the major articulate parts of the body, head and limbs. This makes it easy to map animations from one humanoid skeleton to another, allowing retargeting and inverse kinematics. More info

.

The Avatar system is how Unity identifies that a particular animated model is a humanoid, and which parts of the model correspond to the legs, arms, head, and body.

Because of the similarity in bone structure between different humanoid characters, it is possible to map animations from one humanoid character to another.

Inverse Kinematics Use inverse kinematicsThe geometry that describes the position and orientation of a character’s joints and bodies. Used by inverse kinematics to control character movement.

from a fixed point.
How Root Motion works Learn how body and root transformsThe Transform at the top of a hierarchy of Transforms. In a Prefab, the Root Transform is the topmost Transform in the Prefab. In an animated humanoid character, the Root Transform is a projection on the Y plane of the Body Transform and is computed at run time. At every frame, a change in the Root Transform is computed, and then this is applied to the GameObject to make it move. More info
