  • 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.

  • It has not been studied about modeling methods for SVG documents to represent animation in the web that has been recently increased in interest. In this paper, I propose component modeling for SVG documents by CBD methodology. First, I propose conceptual modeling by UML class diagrams for converting SVG document into component diagram. And then, I propose rules to convert the UML class diagram into component diagram. Thus, main contribution of this paper is that it can generate a component diagram for a SVG document using Component-Based Development methodology.

  • Organic modeling of 3D characters is a challenging task when it comes to correctly modeling the anatomy of the human body. Most sketch based modeling tools available today for modeling organic models (humans, animals, creatures etc) are focused towards modeling base mesh models only and provide little or no support to add details to the base mesh. We propose a hybrid approach which combines geometrical primitives such as generalized cylinders and cube with Shape-from-Shading (SFS) algorithms to create plausible human character models from sketches. The results show that an artist can quickly create detailed character models from sketches by using this hybrid approach.

  • The purpose of this study is to propose the effective development a fashion coordination website by computer graphics and web animation programs. Today, the internet fashion shopping malls come into the spotlight as the way of marketing. The amount of clothing products sold on the internet shopping mall and interest in the website design is increasing. This means many people consider that the web site design is one of the most important thing to lead customers to purchasing. For this reasons, this study develop fashion coordination items which was designed by the computer graphics software named 'photoshop 6.0'and propose the more visual effect of fashion coordination web image which was designed by animation software named 'flash 4.0'. As a result of this study. 1 It can accumulate a database of trend garment. 2. It can help designers save a time, expenses and tries to treat design also make correction and transform their work more freely. 3. It can help develop a new textile through the various image adjustment. 4. It can give more visual and interesting effect to website by animation and multimedia. 5. It can able to communicate interactive with each other by website.

  • In this paper, we implemented cyber character that can do speech recognition, speech synthesis, Motion tracking and 3D animation. For speech recognition, we used Discrete-HMM algorithm with K-means 128 level vector quantization and MFCC feature vector. For speech synthesis, we used demi-syllables TD-PSOLA algorithm. For PC based Motion tracking, we present Fast Optical Flow like Method. And for animating 3D model, we used vertex interpolation with DirectSD retained mode. Finally, we implemented cyber character integrated above systems, which game calculating by the multiplication table with user and the cyber character always look at user using of Motion tracking system.

  • As the first, about symbol and metaphor of visual culture animation, I research what is the de-centered reading focused on relationship between the semiotics text and the audience. Secondly, I will study about an animation text and their relationship within it's metaphor, animation work's analysis and art directed intension(and process) on aesthetic view as a visual representation.

  • There are many opportunistic events that accidentally happen in Rin Taro's animations. However, audiences usually enjoy them in which dramatic catastrophic scenes inflict destruction on a city. Every acquaintance that a hero meets helps him to complete his wish in . Rin's animations describe the hero as a person that every acquaintance is eager to help. This means that the fulfillment of hero's wish depends on sympathy of the other persons toward the hero. Thus, the hero is psychologically dependent on the others. However, Rin Taro gradually became to describe destructive aspects of psychological dependence. A female character in 'X' has a symbiotic relationship with a computer that has a human-like jealousy. At last, it kills her from its jealousy. Rin Taro had shifted from helpful psychological dependence to destructive one in his animations. Therefore, Rin Taro described Japanese mental state as psychological dependence in his animations in accordance with the present state in Japan.

  • With the development of science and technology, virtual reality (VR) has become increasingly popular, being widely used in various fields such as aviation, education, medical science, culture, art, and entertainment. This technology with great potential has changed the way of human-computer interaction and the way people live and entertain. In the field of animation, virtual reality also brings a new viewing form and immersive experience. The paper demonstrates the production of VR animation and then discusses camera's position in VR animation. Where to place the VR camera to bring a comfortable viewing experience. The paper, with the proxemics as its theoretical framework, proposes the hypothesis about the camera position. Then the hypothesis is verified by a series of experiments in animation to discuss the correlation between camera position and proxemics theory.

Motion Areas based Painterly Animation using Various Edges (다양한 에지를 이용한 모션영역 기반 회화적 애니메이션)

  • In this paper, we present a novel method for creating a hand-painted painterly animation, starting from a video input. One of the most important aspects in painterly animation is to maintain the temporal coherence of brush strokes between frames, which plays a vital role to warrant a smooth transition between frames. Our unique utilization of motion areas enables users to produce a smooth movement of brush strokes. The motion areas are the parts where objects move between frames and they are categorized in two main types. A strong motion area is the part where the movement of real edges and hidden edges is determined by the motion vector between frames. The real edge is the outline of an object and the hidden edge is the boundary to represent the direction of a grain of intensity in the areas with gradations. A weak motion area is the remainder after subtracting the strong motion area from the entire motion area. Temporally coherent painterly animation is achieved by re-painting the brush strokes on the canvas using two motion areas, resulting in a natural and hand-painted appearance.

  • Since the early age of computer graphics, facial animation has been applied to various fields, and nowadays it has found several novel applications such as virtual reality(for representing virtual agents), teleconference, and man-machine interface.When we want to apply facial animation to the system with multiple participants connected via network, it is hard to animate facial expression as we desire in real-time because of the size of information to maintain an efficient communication.This paper's major contribution is to adapt 'Level-of-Detail'to the facial animation in order to solve the above problem.Level-of-Detail has been studied in the field of computer graphics to reperesent the appearance of complicated objects in efficient and adaptive way, but until now no attempt has mode in the field of facial animation. In this paper, we present a systematic scheme which enables this kind of adaptive control using Level-of-Detail.The implemented system can generate speech synchronized facial expressions with various types of user input such as text, voice, GUI, head motion, etc.
