In plain words

Pose Animator is a tool that animates 2D vector illustrations in real-time using a webcam. It uses PoseNet and FaceMesh to detect body and facial movements, then applies skeleton-based animation techniques to move the curves in vector characters to match the detected poses. The software is designed for developers and creators working with vector graphics who want to add motion capture animation capabilities to their illustrations.

From the sources

Pose Animator takes a 2D vector illustration and animates its containing curves in real-time based on the recognition result from PoseNet and FaceMesh. It borrows the idea of skeleton-based animation from computer graphics and applies it to vector characters.
