Automated Lip Synchronisation for Human-Computer Interaction and Special Effect Animation
نویسنده
چکیده
The research presents MARTI (Man-machine animation real-time interface) for the realisation of automated special effect animation and human computer interaction. The future developments of the Internet, video communications and multi-media, virtual reality, and animation will rely on the derivation of a natural humanmachine interface in order to submerse people, irrespective of technical know-how, into the latest technology, and allow them to interact with computers and one another using their own personality and idiosyncrasies. MARTI introduces novel research in a number of engineering fields to realise the first natural interface and animation system capable of high performance for real-users and real-world applications.

متن کاملSynthesising Tongue Movements for conversing Virtual Humans
Facial motion capture is a common method for accurately capturing realistic facial movements. An actor’s performance can be used to bring a virtual human to life. However, the movement of the tongue is often forgotten in character animation. For the most part, the problem arises from the difficulty in capturing tongue movements due to occlusion by the teeth and the lips. Techniques from traditi...
متن کاملCarnival-combining speech technology and computer animation.
Speech is powerful information technology and the basis of human interaction. By emitting streams of buzzing, popping, and hissing noises from our mouths, we transmit thoughts, intentions, and knowledge of the world from one mind to another. We’re accustomed to thinking of speech as an acoustic, auditory phenomenon. However, speech is also visible. Although the primary function of speech is to ...
متن کاملAutomated Lip-Sync for 3D-Character Animation
A central task for animating computer generated characters is the synchronization of lip movements and speech signal. For real time synchronization high technical effort, which involves a face tracking system or data gloves, is needed to drive the expressions of the character. If the speech signal is already given, off-line synchronization is possible but the animator is left with a time consum...
متن کاملAudio-visual Integration in Multimodal Communication
In this paper, we review recent research that examines audio-visual integration in multimodal communication. The topics include bimodality in human speech, human and automated lip-reading, facial animation, lip synchronization, joint audio-video coding, and bimodal speaker verification. We also study the enabling technologies for these research topics, including automatic facial feature trackin...
