Autonomous Virtual Actors Based on Virtual Sensors
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present current research developments in the Virtual Life of autonomous synthetic actors. After a brief description of the perception action principles with a few simple examples, we emphasize the concept of virtual sensors for virtual humans. In particular, we describe in details our experiences in implementing virtual vision, tactile and audition. We then describe perception-based locomotion, a multisensor based method of automatic grasping and vision-based ball games.

Virtual Sensors: a Key Tool for the Artificial Life of Virtual Actors
In this paper, we present current research developments in the area of autonomous virtual actors. We first define formal requirements for true virtual humans. After a brief description of the perception action principles with a few simple examples, we emphasize the concept of virtual sensors for virtual humans. In particular, we describe in details our experiences in implementing virtual vision...
متن کاملAutonomy and Task-Level Control for Virtual Actors
This paper shows how research in Computer Animation leads to virtual actors who will be able to possess their own animation. A high-level approach consists in specifying the animation in terms of tasks. The animator can only specify the broad outlines of a particular movement and the animation system fills in the details. Examples will be shown in grasping and walking. We also show the needs fo...
متن کاملVirtual and Real Humans Interacting in the Virtual World
In this paper, we discuss the role of digital actors in Virtual Environments. We describe the integration of motion control techniques with autonomy based on synthetic sensors. In particular, we emphasize the synthetic vision, audition and tactile system. We also discuss how to introduce the sensors of real humans in the Virtual Space in order to have a communication between digital actors and ...
متن کاملNavigation of a Mobile Robot Using Virtual Potential Field and Artificial Neural Network
Mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. The proposed approach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the track using a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. For training, a human operator navigates the mobile robot in ...
متن کاملPlaying Games through the Virtual Life Network
Simulating autonomous virtual actors living in virtual worlds with human-virtual interaction and immersion is a new challenge. The sense of "presence" in the virtual environment is an important requirement for collaborative activities involving multiple remote users working with social interactions. Using autonomous virtual actors within the shared environment is a supporting tool for presence....
