  2. Ragdoll physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ragdoll_physics

    Ragdoll physics is a type of procedural animation used by physics engines, which is often used as a replacement for traditional static death animations in video games and animated films. As computers increased in power, it became possible to do limited real-time physical simulations , which made death animations more realistic.

  3. Procedural animation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_animation

    A ragdoll usually consists of a series of connected rigid bodies that are programmed to have Newtonian physics acting upon them; therefore, very realistic effects can be generated that would very hardly be possible with traditional animation. For example, a character can die slumped over a cliff and the weight of its upper-body can drag the ...

  4. Psychophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychophysics

    Psychophysics quantitatively investigates the relationship between physical stimuli and the sensations and perceptions they produce. Psychophysics has been described as "the scientific study of the relation between stimulus and sensation" [1] or, more completely, as "the analysis of perceptual processes by studying the effect on a subject's experience or behaviour of systematically varying the ...

  5. Game physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_physics

    Game physics vary greatly in their degree of similarity to real-world physics. Sometimes, the physics of a game may be designed to mimic the physics of the real world as accurately as is feasible, in order to appear realistic to the player or observer. In other cases, games may intentionally deviate from actual physics for gameplay purposes.

  6. Psychophysiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychophysiology

    Psychophysiology measures exist in multiple domains; reports, electrophysiological studies, studies in neurochemistry, neuroimaging and behavioral methods. [5] Evaluative reports involve participant introspection and self-ratings of internal psychological states or physiological sensations, such as self-report of arousal levels on the self-assessment manikin, [6] or measures of interoceptive ...

    Psychoacoustics is the branch of psychophysics involving the scientific study of the perception of sound by the human auditory system.It is the branch of science studying the psychological responses associated with sound including noise, speech, and music.

  9. Maximum Action - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_Action

    Maximum Action is a physics-based shooter that takes inspiration from games such as Max Payne, Superhot, and Action Half-Life. [1] The game has a heavy emphasis on fluid movement using dives, slides, and kicks in addition to the running and jumping that is typical of first-person shooters.
