# AnimatableData

A functionality specification that animatable data types adopt.

```
protocol AnimatableData
```

## Overview

The templated animation objects, for example [`BlendTreeAnimation`](/documentation/RealityKit/BlendTreeAnimation)
`<Value>`, determine that the type you specify for `Value` adopts this
protocol. The types that the framework accepts are: [`JointTransforms`](/documentation/RealityKit/JointTransforms),
[`Transform`](/documentation/RealityKit/Transform), <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/Float>,
<doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/Double>,
<doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/SIMD2>,
<doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/SIMD3>,
<doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/SIMD4>, and
<doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/simd/simd_quatf>.
