Layered Animation using Displacement Maps
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a layered animation framework which uses displacement maps for efficient representation and animation of highly detailed surfaces. The model consists of three layers: a skeleton; low-resolution control model; and a displacement map image. The novel aspects of this approach are an automatic closed-form solution for displacement map generation and animation of the layered displacement map model. This approach provides an efficient representation of complex geometry which allows realistic deformable animation with multiple levels-of-detail. The representation enables compression, efficient transmission and level-of-detail control for animated models.

Photo-Realistic Head Model for Real-Time Animation
In the recent years the average performance of computers increased significantly partly due to the ubiquitous availability of graphics hardware. Photorealistic rendering of human faces is no longer restricted to offline rendering and use in movies. Even portable machines and to some degree high-end mobile devices offer enough performance to synthesize photorealistic facial animation in real tim...
متن کاملFrom 3D Shape Capture to Animated Models
This paper presents a framework for construction of animated models from captured surface shape of real objects. Algorithms are introduced to transform the captured surface shape into a layered model. The layered model comprises an articulation structure, generic control model and a displacement map to represent the high-resolution surface detail. Novel methods are presented for automatic contr...
متن کاملLayered Performance Animation with Correlation Maps
Performance has a spontaneity and “aliveness” that can be difficult to capture in more methodical animation processes such as keyframing. Access to performance animation has traditionally been limited to either low degree of freedom characters or required expensive hardware. We present a performance-based animation system for humanoid characters that requires no special hardware, relying only o...
متن کاملFacial Performance Synthesis using Deformation-Driven Polynomial Displacement Maps
We present a novel method for acquisition, modeling, compression, and synthesis of realistic facial deformations using polynomial displacement maps. Our method consists of an analysis phase where the relationship between motion capture markers and detailed facial geometry is inferred, and a synthesis phase where novel detailed animated facial geometry is driven solely by a sparse set of motion ...
متن کاملStatic and Pseudo Static Study of Stress and Displacement of Earth-Fill Dam Using Layered and Single-Layer Models
Earth-fill dams stability in steady state seepage condition is very important, especially during earthquakes. Numerical software analyses require accurate and realistic modeling of construction stages. Since earth-fill dams are constructed in different layers, so these conditions should be considered in software modeling to achieve a reasonable design. In this study, an earth-fill dam is modele...
