Abstract. While interactive virtual humans are becoming widely used in education, training and therapeutic applications, building animations which are both realistic and parameteri...
This paper describes a fast technique for modifying motion sequences for complex articulated mechanisms in a way that preserves physical properties of the motion. This technique i...
The kinematics and force/displacement relationships of elements of biological joints are notoriously difficult to understand. In particular, the human knee has bearing surfaces o...
We have built a system that allows users to naturally manipulate virtual 3D models with both hands on the Responsive Workbench, a tabletop VR device. Our design is largely based u...
The Kneed Walker is a physics-based model derived from a planar biomechanical characterization of human locomotion. By controlling torques at the knees, hips and torso, the model ...
