An Animated Virtual Drummer
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a system for the automatic generation of a 3D animation of a drummer playing along with a given piece of music. The input, consisting of a sound wave, is analysed to determine which drums are struck at what moments. The Standard MIDI File format is used to store the recognised notes. From this higher-level description of the music, the animation is generated. The system is implemented in Java and uses the Java3D API for visualisation.

A Groovy Virtual Drumming Agent
This paper presents an architecture for an intelligent virtual agent that imitates human drumming behaviour. Through imitation, the agent models the user-specific variations that constitute the “groove” of the drummer. The architecture comprises a motor system that imitates arm movements of a human drummer, and a sound system that produces the sound of the human playing style. The presence of a...

متن کاملA Communication Task in HMD Virtual Environments: Speaker and Listener Movement Improves Communication
In this paper we present an experiment which investigates the influence of animated real-time self-avatars in immersive virtual environments on a communication task. Further we investigate the influence of 1st and 3rd person perspectives and the influence of tracked speaker and listener. We find that people perform best in our communication task when both the speaker and the listener have an an...
