Is live streaming of motion builder data a possible form of input for avatar control in unity?

Hi there, I'm new here and need a little bit of advice. As part of a college project I have qualisys motion capture cameras and motion builder software with the intent of having a virtual avatar that can mimic certain movements of the person with markers in front of said cameras. After spending hours pouring through tutorials on this site and forums I have only seen information that mocap data (or the wire frame made by motion builder) can be imported to unity and used for animation, but only as a saved and replayed animation, not as a form of control. Since all the input and avatar control for unity is concerned with gaming (perfectly understandable, gaming usually works with a mouse, keyboard, etc) I just want to ask whether it's actually possible to run a live stream of data into unity to do such a thing. guessing it would have to be manually scripted as I can't find any assets or built in functions for this (yet) but would such a script even be theoretically possible? Apologies if I screwed up any technical terms.
