Animating Idle Gaze in Public Places
نویسندگان
چکیده
In realistic looking game environments it is important that virtual characters behave naturally. Our goal is to produce naturally looking gaze behavior for animated agents and avatars that are simply idling. We studied people standing and waiting, as well as people walking down a shopping street. From our observations we built a demo with the CADIA Populus multi-agent social simulation platform.

A head movement propensity model for animating gaze shifts and blinks of virtual characters
An automatic model is presented for animating gaze shifts of virtual characters towards target locations in a virtual environment. Two connected components are described: an eye–head controller and a blinking controller. The gaze control model is based on results from neuroscience, and dictates the contributions of the eyes and head to a gaze shift according to an individual’s head movement pro...
متن کاملTowards eye gaze aware analysis and synthesis of audiovisual speech
Eye gaze plays many important roles in audiovisual speech, especially in face-to-face interactions. Eyelid shapes are known to correlate with gaze direction. This correlation is perceived and should be restored when animating 3D talking heads. This paper presents a data-based construction method that models the user’s eyelid geometric deformations caused by gazing and blinking during conversati...

متن کاملShort Paper: Exploring the Object Relevance of a Gaze Animation Model
Models for animating the eyes of virtual characters often focus on making the face appear natural and believable. There has been relatively little work in computer graphics that investigates the relevance of the objects of interest (gaze targets). In this paper, a gaze animation model has been constructed that allocates visual attention to relevant targets from objects that are within the virtu...
