Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new method to concatenate two dynamic full-body motions such as punches, kicks, and flips by using the angular momentum as a cue. Through the observation of real humans, we have identified two patterns of angular momentum that make the transition of such motions efficient. Based on these observations, we propose a new method to concatenate two full-body motions in a natural manner. Our method is useful for applications where dynamic, full-body motions are required, such as 3D computer games and animations. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Using motion capture for interactive motion editing
VRCAI '14: Proceedings of the 13th ACM SIGGRAPH International Conference on Virtual-Reality Continuum and its Applications in Industry

Motion capture technology has been widely used for creating character motions. Motion editing is usually also required to adjust captured motions. Because character poses which include joint rotations, body positions, and orientations are high-...
Motion retargeting in the presence of topological variations: Research Articles
Game Technologies

Research on motion retargeting and synthesis for character animation has been mostly focused on character scale variations. In our recent work we have addressed the motion retargeting problem for characters with slightly different topologies. In this ...
Exploring Motion Sequence of Virtual Characters: Experimenting Motion Capture Variables
GMAI '07: Proceedings of the Geometric Modelling and Imaging

The purpose of the research is to study the detail of motion of various subjects with differences in physical attributes. The research outlines how different physique produces different behavioural patterns based upon mass and proportion. This research ...
