For real-time animation, keyframe animation that consists of translation, rotation, scaling transform nodes is used widely in 3D graphics. This paper presents geometrical watermarking using vertex coordinates in CoordIndex node and interpolator watermarking using keyvalues in PositionInterpolator node for 3D keyframe animation based on VRML. Experimental results verify that the proposed algorithm has the robustness against geometrical attacks and timeline attacks as well as the invisibility.

3D keyframe animation is used widely in 3D graphics for real-time animation. This is a method that registers the animated key values in the important several frames among the entire frames and generates the rest frame by interpolator using the registered key values. This paper proposed the watermarking for 3D keyframe animation using PositionInterpolator. The proposed algorithm selects randomly the embedding meshes, which are transform nodes among the entire hierarchical structure. Then the watermark is embedded into keyValues of PositionInterpolator in selected transform node. Experimental results verified that the proposed algorithm has the robustness against geometrical attacks and timeline attacks.

This paper proposed 3D keyframe animation using orientation interpolator. 3D keyframe animation consists of a number of transform nodes that have geometrical node of initial model and several interpolator nodes that represent the object moving. In the proposed algorithm, we randomly selects transform nodes with orientation interpolator node and performs to resample quaternion components for haying uniform key time. And then, watermark bits are embedded into quaternion components with large rotation angles. Experimental results verified that the watermark embedded by the proposed algorithm had good robustness against geometrical attacks and timeline attacks and also PSNR of keyvalue in orientation interpolator node is above 42dB.

As a means of getting over the linguistic barrier between different languages, a sign-language communication system using CG animation techniques has been studied. In order to generate a kind of sign-language animation in the system, the joint angles of the arms and the hands corresponding to the gesture have to be determined Up to date, however, the values of joint angles have been decided by trial-and-error methods based on the animator's experiences To overcome the drawback, m this paper, we design an integrated keyframe editor of the arms and the hands for 3D sign-language animation with which we can easily and quickly generate the keyframes of the sign-language animation required to build up In the Implemented keyframe editor, the values of joint angles are calculated by using mverse kinematics, and the same transformation matrix is applied to the joints of two arms and twenty fingers Experimental results show a possibility that the editor could be used efficiently for making up the sign-language communication dictionaries needed for inter-communication between different languages.

We design a keyframe editor of arms and hands for 3D sign-language animation using inverse kinematics. In the previous study, we acquired only the joint angles of two arms after selecting arbitrarily the shapes of hands. In this paper, both joint angles of arms and hands are calculated by the same transformation matrix of the inverse kinematics. In the method, the design window of arm gestures can be converted into that of hand shapes by clicking a button. Experimental results show a possibility that the proposed method could be used for building up the sign-language communication dictionaries.

Unity is a powerful game engine that can be used to create 2D or 3D content. The current study focuses on the use of Unity for 3D computer animations, covering the strengths, basic concepts and tools for creating and integrating 3D animations in Unity, including the use of keyframe animation, animation controllers, and blend trees. Also covering advanced topics such as skeletal animation, procedural animation and their applications in games, simulations, and other interactive media. Case studies that showcase the potential of Unity for 3D animation will be analyzed and discussed taking in the quality of visuals and the receptance by the public in general.

Recently 3D animation can produce animation dose to real picture owing to rapid technical development of hardware and software and is used as entertainment factors for movie, ads, game and digital pictures. The process of making 3D animation needs the various making techniques and expression factors unlike traditional animation. Production technique and expression factors in making 3D animation are not acted as individual factor, but they can achieve an animation with high perfection when they should be combined. Therefore this study analyzes the technical expression methods based on hardware and software for operation by computer process and the artistic expression factors based on aesthetic, figurative, design and pictorial factors and then seeks a method of making animation with technical perfection.

This paper propose a practical algorithm to reuse and expand the objects. This algorithm is based on the Motion Path Modification rules. We focus on reusing of the existing motions for synthesizing new motions for the objects. Both the linear and the nonlinear curve-fitting algorithm are applied to modify an animation by keyframe interpolation and to make the motion appear realistic. We also proposes a framework of the scenario-based 3D image synthesizing system that allows common users, who envision a scenario in their minds, to realize it into segments of a cool animation. The framework is useful in building a 3D animation in game programming with a limited set of 3D objects.

In this study, we study the development and control of motion of 3D character animation and discuss the development direction of technology. Character animation has been developed as a data-based method and a physics-based method. The animation generation technique based on the keyframe method has been made possible by the development of the hardware technology, and the motion capture device has been used. Various techniques for effectively editing the motion data have appeared. At the same time, animation techniques based on physics have emerged, which realistically generate the motion of the character by physically optimized numerical computation. Recently, animation techniques using machine learning have shown new possibilities for creating characters that can be controlled by the user in real time and are expected to be developed in the future.

The advancement of technology enables smart phones or handheld devices to render complex 3D graphics. However, the processing power and memory of smart phones remain very limited to render high polygon and details 3D models especially on games which requires animation, physic engine, or augmented reality. In this paper, several techniques will be introduced to speed up the computation and reducing the number of vertices of the 3D meshes without losing much detail.
