Its main novelty is the ability to import and integrate user-generated content into the character creator.[1][2] Fuse was part of Mixamo's product suite, and it is aimed at video game developers, video game modders, and 3D enthusiasts.[3]

History
The technology underneath Fuse was initially developed as a character creator at Stanford University[4] from the work of Siddhartha Chaudhuri[5] in Prof. Vladlen Koltun's group. Chaudhuri's work resulted in a SIGGRAPH publication in 2011.[6] Mixamo also partnered with Allegorithmic in the creation of Fuse.[4] All texturing within Fuse is driven by Allegorithmic's Substance Designer.[7] A beta version of Fuse was originally launched on Steam in November 2013.[1] Fuse 1.0 was officially launched in March 2014.[8] Adobe has stopped development and discontinued support for Fuse on September 13, 2020.[9][10]

Software
Fuse is a client based product that lets users choose and modify character components such as body parts in real-time.[11] Users can also customize their characters with clothing and texture options provided by Allegorithmic.[11] Fuse's main novelty is the ability for users to import and automatically integrate their own content into the character creation system, leveraging all the features of pre-loaded content.[1][2] Fuse characters are rigged through Mixamo online service. Characters have a bone driven rig and a blend shape based facial rig for facial animation.[7]
