Motion Abstraction and Mapping with Spatial Constraints

bstraction and Mapping with Spatial Constraints ? Rama Bindiganavale and Norman I. Badler Computer and Information Science Department University of Pennsylvania, PA 19104-6389, USA A new technique is introduced to abstract and edit motion capture data with spatial constraints. Spatial proximities of end-eectors with tagged objects during zero-crossings in acceleration space are used to isolate signicant events and abstract constraints from an agent's ace abstracted data is edited and applied to another agent of a dierent anthropometric size and a similar action is executed while maintaining the constraints. This technique is specically useful for actions involving interactions of a human agent with itself and other objects.
