Animation of Human Locomotion Using Sagittal Elevation Angles
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a data-driven procedural model for the kinematic animation of human walking. The use of data yields realistic looking gait, while the procedural model yields flexibility. We present a new motion data representation, the sagittal elevation angles, and present biomechanical evidence that these angles have a stereotyped pattern across many different walking situations, implying their reusability as a motion data source. We also sketch our algorithm for animating human gait based on sagittal elevation angle data which allows us to generate curved locomotion on uneven terrain with stylistic variation without requiring new datasets.

Interactions between posture and locomotion: motor patterns in humans walking with bent posture versus erect posture.
Human erect locomotion is unique among living primates. Evolution selected specific biomechanical features that make human locomotion mechanically efficient. These features are matched by the motor patterns generated in the CNS. What happens when humans walk with bent postures? Are normal motor patterns of erect locomotion maintained or completely reorganized? Five healthy volunteers walked str...
متن کاملIntersegmental coordination during human locomotion: does planar covariation of elevation angles reflect central constraints?
To study intersegmental coordination in humans performing different locomotor tasks (backward, normal, fast walking, and running), we analyzed the spatiotemporal patterns of both elevation and joint angles bilaterally in the sagittal plane. In particular, we determined the origins of the planar covariation of foot, shank, and thigh elevation angles. This planar constraint is observable in the t...

متن کاملMotor patterns for human gait: backward versus forward locomotion.
Seven healthy subjects walked forward (FW) and backward (BW) at different freely chosen speeds, while their motion, ground reaction forces, and electromyographic (EMG) activity from lower limb muscles were recorded. We considered the time course of the elevation angles of the thigh, shank, and foot segments in the sagittal plane, the anatomic angles of the hip, knee, and ankle joints, the verti...
