Hi! I have problem with manipulating with treejs avatar object.  
For example I want to that my avatar hand up his right arm.  
I’m not want to make it via mediapipe or camera connection. I want make it via coordinates that i will generate (it will be ml model that generates coordinates of pose human)  
Okay question is can i make it? is there any possiblities or suggetions?  
Thank you for answering!

There’s no such a thing 👀

You’d most likely need some kind of [inverse kinematics](https://threejs.org/examples/?q=ik#webgl_animation_skinning_ik) to create this kind of motion on the go.

I mean loading glb object and manipulating with that

```javascript
function loadAvatar() {
                const gltfLoader = new THREE.GLTFLoader();
                gltfLoader.load('https://models.readyplayer.me/658ba388fc8bec93d06753a7.glb', (gltf) => {
                    avatar = gltf.scene;
                    avatar.scale.set(0.5, 0.5, 0.5); // Scale the avatar to fit the scene
                    scene.add(avatar);
                    animate();
                });
            }

```
