There has been a recent paradigm shift in the computer animation industry with an
increasing use of pre-recorded motion for animating virtual characters. A fundamental …

The rapid growth of motion capture data increases the importance of motion retrieval. The
majority of the existing motion retrieval approaches are based on a labor-intensive step in …

Intuitive and efficient retrieval of motion capture data is essential for effective use of motion
capture databases. In this paper, we describe a system that allows the user to retrieve a …

In this paper, we compare gamepad and touchscreen interfaces for action selection tasks in
computer games. Touchscreens are now widely used for computer games on tablets …

Quick creation of 3D character animations is an important task in game design, simulations,
forensic animation, education, training, and more. We present a framework for creating 3D …

Animating 3D characters using motion capture data requires basic expertise and manual
labor. To support the creativity of animation design and make it easier for common users, we …

Sketch-based human motion retrieval is a hot topic in computer animation in recent years. In
this paper, we present a novel sketch-based human motion retrieval method via selected 2 …

In this paper, we present a keyframe-based human motion capture data retrieval system
which uses a wooden doll as the input device. A user inputs a keyframe by posing an artist's …

Robots are rapidly becoming a part of everyday life and have now moved from industrial
environments to household, medical and entertainment applications. In order to make full …

In this paper, we introduce a puppet interface for the development of an intuitive animation
system. Our puppet interface does not require any special devices and any type of puppet …
