  • Making a Game Character Move
    Piia Brusi MAKING A GAME CHARACTER MOVE Animation and motion capture for video games Bachelor’s thesis Degree programme in Game Design 2021 Author (authors) Degree title Time Piia Brusi Bachelor of Culture May 2021 and Arts Thesis title 69 pages Making a game character move Animation and motion capture for video games Commissioned by South Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences Supervisor Marko Siitonen Abstract The purpose of this thesis was to serve as an introduction and overview of video game animation; how the interactive nature of games differentiates game animation from cinematic animation, what the process of producing game animations is like, what goes into making good game animations and what animation methods and tools are available. The thesis briefly covered other game design principles most relevant to game animators: game design, character design, modelling and rigging and how they relate to game animation. The text mainly focused on animation theory and practices based on commentary and viewpoints provided by industry professionals. Additionally, the thesis described various 3D animation and motion capture systems and software in detail, including how motion capture footage is shot and processed for games. The thesis ended on a step-by-step description of the author’s motion capture cleanup project, where a jog loop was created out of raw motion capture data. As the topic of game animation is vast, the thesis could not cover topics such as facial motion capture and procedural animation in detail. Technologies such as motion matching, machine learning and range imaging were also suggested as topics worth covering in the future.

  • Columbia Photographic Images and Photorealistic Computer Graphics Dataset
    Columbia Photographic Images and Photorealistic Computer Graphics Dataset Tian-Tsong Ng, Shih-Fu Chang, Jessie Hsu, Martin Pepeljugoski¤ fttng,sfchang,[email protected], [email protected] Department of Electrical Engineering Columbia University ADVENT Technical Report #205-2004-5 Feb 2005 Abstract Passive-blind image authentication is a new area of research. A suitable dataset for experimentation and comparison of new techniques is important for the progress of the new research area. In response to the need for a new dataset, the Columbia Photographic Images and Photorealistic Computer Graphics Dataset is made open for the passive-blind image authentication research community. The dataset is composed of four component image sets, i.e., the Photorealistic Com- puter Graphics Set, the Personal Photographic Image Set, the Google Image Set, and the Recaptured Computer Graphics Set. This dataset, available from http://www.ee.columbia.edu/trustfoto, will be for those who work on the photographic images versus photorealistic com- puter graphics classi¯cation problem, which is a subproblem of the passive-blind image authentication research. In this report, we de- scribe the design and the implementation of the dataset. The report will also serve as a user guide for the dataset. 1 Introduction Digital watermarking [1] has been an active area of research since a decade ago. Various fragile [2, 3, 4, 5] or semi-fragile watermarking algorithms [6, 7, 8, 9] has been proposed for the image content authentication and the detection of image tampering. In addition, authentication signature [10, ¤This work was done when Martin spent his summer in our research group 1 11, 12, 13] has also been proposed as an alternative image authentication technique.

  • 8. Web-Based Embodied Conversational Agents and Older People
    8. Web-based Embodied Conversational Agents and Older People Gerard Llorach, Hörzentrum Oldenburg GmbH & Medizinische Physik and Cluster of Excellence ‘Hearing4all’, Universität Oldenburg, Germany Javi Agenjo, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Spain Josep Blat, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Spain Sergio Sayago, Universitat de Barcelona, Spain Within Human-Computer Interaction, there has recently been an important turn to embodied and voice-based interaction. In this chapter, we discuss our ongoing research on building online Embodied Conversational Agents (ECAs), specifically, their interactive 3D web graphics aspects. We present ECAs based on our technological pipeline, which integrates a number of free online editors, such as Adobe Fuse CC or MakeHuman, and standards, mainly BML (Behaviour Markup Language). We claim that making embodiment available for online ECAs is attainable, and advantageous over current alternatives, mostly desktop-based. In this chapter we also report on initial results of activities aimed to explore the physical appearance of ECAs for older people. A group of them (N=14) designed female ECAs. Designing them was easy and great fun. The perspective on older-adult HCI introduced in this chapter is mostly technological, allowing for rapid online experimentations to address key issues, such as anthropomorphic aspects, in the design of ECAs with, and for, older people. 8.1 Introduction Embodied and voice-based interactions are increasingly important within Human- Computer Interaction. Speech is widely regarded as the most natural way for humans to communicate. Nowadays, it is possible to interact verbally with Intelligent Personal Assistants (IPAs), which provide assistance or companionship to a wide range of user groups, ranging from children (Druga et al.

Une copie de cette licence est inclue dans l'annexe nommée « Licence de documentation libre GNU ». Blender et la notion de 3D Vous avez dit 3D ? Introduction La 3D, acronyme de 3 dimensions, est par déformation la désignation d'une façon de produire des graphismes en utilisant les 3 dimensions, nommées généralement X, Y et Z. Ainsi, la 3D permet à son utilisateur de créer diverses formes dans l'espace, mais également de leur donner une couleur, des propriétés, etc. La 3D fonctionne sur un principe simple: il existe des points dans l'espace, dont certains sont reliés par des arêtes, et le tout forme parfois des faces, lorsque 3 arêtes ou plus sont reliées. Par convention, mais également pour des raisons de propreté au niveau du travail, une face ne doit pas avoir plus de 4 côtés. Il est possible d'en faire plus, mais il est nettement plus facilement de faire de graves erreurs après. De plus, il faut savoir que, suivant les logiciels utilisés, on utilise soit des faces à 3 côtés, soit des faces à 4 côtés.
