Motion capture assisted animation: texturing and synthesis
TL;DR: A method for creating animations that allows the animator to sketch an animation by setting a small number of keyframes on a fraction of the possible degrees of freedom, which takes advantage of the fact that joint motions of an articulated figure are often correlated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Twist Based Acquisition and Tracking of Animal and Human Kinematics
TL;DR: This paper demonstrates a new visual motion estimation technique that is able to recover high degree-of-freedom articulated human body configurations in complex video sequences, and is the first computer vision based system able to process such challenging footage.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Animating by multi-level sampling
TL;DR: This work describes a method for synthesizing joint angle and translation data based on the information in motion capture data that is realistic not only in that it resembles the original training data, but in thatIt has random variations that are statistically similar to what one would find in repeated measurements of the motion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single molecule biochemistry using optical tweezers
TL;DR: This review focuses on three examples of mechanical and kinetic study of proteins at the single molecule level and includes methods of extracting parameters of interest from the raw data such experiments generate.
Synthesis of Cyclic Motions with Texture
TL;DR: A method is demonstrated for using motion capture data as a starting point for creating synthetic motion data that addresses this problem by allowing the animator to specify hard constraints such as where the feet should contact the floor.
