Abstract

We developed a system that creates artistic dance movements by augmenting body movements with a VR device. Our proposed system controls a virtual dancer’s body in a virtual space in real time based on a VR device’s input. Whole-body movements, which are different from those of the user, are created by changing the body parts to which the input movements are applied, processing and amplifying them, and synthesizing the IK control. Six choreographers investigated the possibilities of creating dance movements in a virtual space. The results identified two types of interaction: manipulating the body of another person or interacting as the body of another person. Both can be applied to choreographic creation.
