Facial Animation and Motion Capture: Key Role for the Communication

In the last 100 years we have observed a great development of the technology. This development applied to the mass media as the radio, the cinema, the television, or Internet have influence in the human communication and the interaction of the society with the technologies. The new communicative environments need new actors (avatars) with high communicate face expression. The modeling and the a...

Motion Capture Animation for Physical Model Analysis

This paper presents a motion capture technique applied to animation, in order to analyze physical models. A low cost motion capture environment has been built, which is validated through a case study. An experiment is described, showing the main steps to be performed using the motion capture technique. Finally the generated animations are used to analyze physical models in a virtual three dimen...

on the comparison of keyword and semantic-context methods of learning new vocabulary meaning

the rationale behind the present study is that particular learning strategies produce more effective results when applied together. the present study tried to investigate the efficiency of the semantic-context strategy alone with a technique called, keyword method. to clarify the point, the current study seeked to find answer to the following question: are the keyword and semantic-context metho...

Facial Animation Based on 3D Scans and Motion Capture

One of the applications of realistic facial animation outside the film industry is psychophysical research in order to understand the perception of human facial motion. For this, an animation model close to physical reality is important. Through the combination of highresolution 3D scans and 3D motion capture, we aim for such a model and provide a prototypical example in this sketch. State-of-t...
