THIS IS INSANE
NVIDIA’s text-to-motion model now runs without NVIDIA’s stack.
Type a sentence. Get a human motion. On a CPU.
It’s called kimodo.cpp — a GGML/C++ port of NVIDIA’s Kimodo, four days old and already 470+ stars.
Here’s the wild part:
- Text goes in, SMPL-X22 rotations + root translation come out
- Runs on CPU or Vulkan — your call, your hardware
- Weights ship as GGUF with SHA-256-verified manifests
- DDIM sampling, the diffusion loop, rewritten in C++
- CPU/Vulkan parity tests prove both backends agree
No CUDA.
No Python.
No NVIDIA account.
The same numbers on a laptop CPU as on a Vulkan GPU — that’s what the parity tests are for.
It also ships:
→ C and C++ APIs (kimodo_generate takes your prompt)
→ a Go demo server with prompt history on :8094
→ safetensors conversion tooling
→ fuzz + sanitizer presets
And yes: four days old, Apache-2.0, pushed daily.
