On the empirical limits of billboard rotation
This paper describes an experiment investigating for the first time, the perceptual tolerance of inconsistent projections when rotated billboards are transformed and included in a...

Tangible interfaces for real-time 3D virtual environments
Emergent game formats, such as machinima, that use game worlds as expressive 3D performance spaces have new expressive powers with an increase of the quality of their underlying g...

Causal Transmission of Colored Source Frames over a Packet Erasure Channel
We propose a linear predictive quantization system for causally transmitting parallel sources with temporal memory (colored frames) over an erasure channel. By optimizing within t...

Fast animation and control of nonrigid structures
We describe a fast method for creating physically based animation of non-rigid objects. Rapid simulation of nonrigid behavior is based on global deformations. Constraints are used...

Reusable motion synthesis using state-space controllers
The use of physically-based techniques for computer animation can result in realistic object motion. The price paid for physically-based motion synthesis lies in increased computa...
