Overview
Mixamo provides a browser workflow for uploading a humanoid character, marking joints, auto-rigging and applying library animations. Adobe's guide covers FBX/OBJ/ZIP uploads and mapping an already rigged FBX character. The FAQ limits the system to bipedal humanoids and describes mesh, neutral-pose and proportion requirements.
It is a candidate for reviewed prototype motion when your account and character are eligible. The FAQ says it is free with an Adobe ID, excludes Enterprise/Federated IDs and China country-code accounts, and stores only the last character. Keep local backups and check the target application's import. No rig, download or timing test was performed.
