## Lip Sync Add-on
Welcome to the documentation for the **Blender Lip Sync Addon** β a powerful and evolving tool designed to help you bring your characters to life by automatically synchronizing their lips with audio.
Whether you're creating animated shorts, cinematic cutscenes, or character dialogues, this addon speeds up your workflow by taking care of the tedious process of lip synchronization.
***
### Key Features
* **Audio-Driven Lip Sync**\
Synchronize lips from any media file that contains audio (e.g., `.mp4`, `.mov`, `.wav`, `.mp3`).
* **Sprite sheet Support**\
Use a 2D sprite sheet of mouth shapes (visemes) to animate characters quickly and easily.
* **Shape Key Integration**\
Automatically animate your character's mouth using shape keys for precise lip sync in 3D.
* **AI-Enhanced Phoneme Detection**\
Leverages automatic speech recognition and phoneme mapping under the hood (via Vosk, Phonemizer, etc.).
***
### Coming Soon
* **Pose Library Support**\
You'll soon be able to use pose libraries to drive lip animations on rigged characters β perfect for more advanced and reusable rigs.
