Skeletal animation or rigging is a technique in computer animation in which a character (or other articulated object) is represented in two parts: a polygonal or parametric mesh representation of the surface of the object, and a hierarchical set of interconnected parts (called joints or bones, and collectively forming the skeleton), a virtual ...
3D Viewer (formerly Mixed Reality Viewer and before that, View 3D) [2] [3] [4] is a 3D computer graphics viewer and augmented reality application that was first included in Windows 10 1703. It supports the .fbx , .3mf , .obj , and .stl and many more file formats [ 5 ] listed in features section.
An animation composed in one 3D application suite sometimes needs to be transferred to another, as for rendering. Because different 3D applications tend to implement bones and other special effects differently, the morph target technique is sometimes used to transfer animations between 3D applications to avoid export issues.
Euphoria is a game animation middleware created by NaturalMotion based on Dynamic Motion Synthesis, NaturalMotion's proprietary technology for animating 3D characters on-the-fly "based on a full simulation of the 3D character, including body, muscles and motor nervous system". [1]
The main techniques used to apply facial animation to a character are: 1.) morph targets animation, 2.) bone driven animation, 3.) texture-based animation (2D or 3D), and 4.) physiological models. Morph targets (also called "blendshapes") based systems offer a fast playback as well as a high degree of fidelity of expressions.
Blocking is an animation technique in which key poses are created to establish timing and placement of characters and props in a given scene or shot. [1] This technique is most commonly used in 3D computer animation, where it is sometimes referred to as Stepped animation.
An example of monocular portrait images of human faces that have been converted to create a moving 3D photo using depth estimation via Machine Learning using TensorFlow.js [3] in the browser With advances in machine learning and computer vision, [ 3 ] it is now also possible to recreate this effect using a single monocular image as an input.
Squigglevision is a method of computer animation in which the outlines of shapes are made to wiggle and undulate, emulating the effect of sketchily hand-drawn animation. Tom Snyder of Tom Snyder Productions invented the technique, which his animation studio Soup2Nuts subsequently used in Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist in 1995, and in Dick and Paula Celebrity Special, the first season of Home ...
