Improving the Believability of Virtual Characters Using Qualitative Gesture Analysis

This paper describes preliminary results of a research performed in the framework of the Enactive project (EU IST NoE Enactive). The aim of this research is to improve believability of a virtual character using qualitative analysis of gesture. Using techni ...

Full-Body Avatar Control with Environment Awareness

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado, Daniel Raunhardt, Damien Maupu

Interactive control of virtual characters through full-body movement requires accurately reproducing a performer's motion while accounting for surrounding obstacles. The authors' approach, based on a prioritized inverse kinematics solver, satisfies marker ...

Full-body performance animation with Sequential Inverse Kinematics

Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado

In this paper, we present an analytic-iterative Inverse Kinematics (IK) method, called Sequential lK (SIK), that reconstructs 3D human full-body movements in real time. The input data for the reconstruction is the least possible (i.e., the positions of wri ...

Accurate On-line Avatar Control with Collision Anticipation

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado, Daniel Raunhardt, Damien Maupu

Interactive control of a virtual character through full body movement has a wide range of applications. However, there is a need for systems that accurately reproduce the motion of a performer while accounting for surrounding obstacles. We propose an appro ...

Challenges in exploiting prioritized inverse kinematics for motion capture and postural control

Ronan Boulic, Benoît Le Callennec, Manuel Peinado

In this paper we explore the potential of prioritized inverse kinematics for motion capture and postural control. We have two goals in mind: reducing the number of sensors to improve the usability of such systems, and allowing interactions with the environ ...
