  • The animatronics technique could be very important fact of technique not only to achieve full completion of visible image but also to offer lots of chances to express images by merging CG, special effects and special devices. In this thesis, we design and implement the Zigbee-based wireless transceiver and communication program to control animal animatronics such as a dog and bear. The wireless control utilizing the Zigbee protocol is that electrically consumption is more small than the Bluetooth and reliability of data transmission is better. The implemented control systems and program have the normal and replay function for control of animal models. This functions and operability are tested by a designed animatronics prototype under the wireless environment.

  • The aninmatronics is a technique for representing animals or new kinds of living things like aliens with robots and machines. The motions of cameras and objects can be made complicatedly and finely by using various kinds of actuators. But it needs so many actuators to make complicated motions. To handle difficulty to synchronize actuators and to make a database of motions of actuators, the animatronics system that has layered structure with CAN is proposed. The system is devided by a three layers-PC, microcontrollers and actuators so that the problems which arise from using too many actuators such as management of data and time delay of processing data can be handled.

  • The control technology of animatronics is an interesting topic explored in various fields, including engineering, medicine, and art, with ongoing research efforts. The conventional method for controlling the movement of animatronics is to use electric motors installed inside the body. However, this method is difficult to apply when expressing a narrow space inside the body. In this study, a method of using external forces instead of installing mechanical devices inside the body was proposed to control the movement of a thin and long tentacle organism. Specifically, in this study, the joint body of animatronics was made of magnetic metal material so that it could be affected by the force of an externally installed electromagnet. The strength of the electromagnet was controlled by a PID controller to enable real-time control of the position of the animatronics body. In addition, the magnet was made to rotate, and the speed of rotation was changed to create various movements. Through virtual environment simulations, our experiments demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method, showcasing real-time control by users and the creation of animations in various styles.

  • The purpose of this study is to gather basic data in the special effects make-up field and to provide a source of inspiration for creative make-up design by examining how special effects make-up is developed according to representative films. Two approaches are used in this study: a literature review and an empirical case analysis. In Korea, color TV was introduced in the 1980s, with the demand for a realistic image. Since the 2000s, 3D printing technology has been introduced to special effects make-up. Special effects make-up was first introduced in Hollywood films in the 1890s, and by the 1900s, artificial teeth and eyebrows were added and presented using general make-up techniques. Since then, 3D and 4D technologies and animation performance capture methods have been introduced and distributed due to the rapid development of computer technology.
