In this paper, we propose a 3-D animation system to track and analyze motion of the human object. The proposed system consists of two separate layers: motion analysis layer and 3-D model registration layer. Following the MPEG-4 SNHC standard, we generate object motion using body definition and animation parameters. In the implemented system, we acquire human motion data from a single camera and extract body definition parameters from arbitrary VRML human models.

Currently, there are many software tools that can generate 3D human figure models and animations based on the advancement of computer graphics technology. However, we still have problems in interoperability of human data models in different applications because common data models do not exist. To address this issue, the Web3D Consortium and the ISO/IEC JTC1 SC24 WG6 have developed the H-Anim standard. However, H-Anim does not include human motion data formats although it defines the structure of a human figure. This research is intended to obtain interoperable human animation by defining the data for human motions in H- Anim figures. In this paper, we describe a syntactic method to define motion data for the H-Anim figure and its implementation. In addition, we describe a method of specifying motion parameters necessary for generating animations by using an arbitrary character model data set created by a general graphics tool.

There is a need for a system independent human data format that doesn't depend on a specific graphics tool or program to use interoperable human data in a network environment. To achieve this, the Web3D Consortium and ISO/IEC JTC1 WG6 developed the international draft standard ISO/IEC 19774 Humanoid Animation(H-Anim). H-Anim defines the data structure for an articulated human figure, but it does not yet define the data for human motion generation. This paper discusses a method of obtaining compatibility and independence of motion data between application programs, and describes a method of simplifying motion retargetting necessary for motion definition of H-Anim characters. In addition, it describes a method of generating H-Anim character animation using arbitrary 3D character models and arbitrary motion capture data without any inter-relations, and its implementation results.

We have developed a prototype super-high-definition (SHD) digital cinema distribution system that can store, transmit, and display eight-million-pixel motion pictures that have the image quality of a 35-mm film movie. The system contains a movie server, a real-time decoder, and an SHB projector. Using a Gigabit Ethernet link and TCP/IP, the server transmits JPEG2000 compressed motion picture data streams to the decoder at transmission speeds as high as 300 Mbps. The received data streams are decompressed by the decoder, and then projected onto a screen via the projector. By using an enlarged TCP window, multiple TCP streams, and a shaping function to control the data transmission quantity, we achieved real-time streaming of SHD movie data at about 300 Mbps between Chicago and Los Angeles, a distance of more than 3000 km. We also improved the decoder performance to show movies with Image qualities of 450 Mbps or higher. Since UDP is more suitable than TCP for fast long-distance streaming, we have developed an SHD digital cinema UDP relay system, in which UDP is used for transmission over a fast long-distance network. By using four pairs of server-side-proxy and decoder-side-proxy, 450-Mbps movie data streams could be transmitted.

H-Anim is an international standard that Humanoid Animation Working Group in Web3D Consortium defined the data structure necessary for human animation. Various libraries and tools have been generated according to the structure, but they still have restrictions to represent realistic humanoid motions. This paper presents the method of generating realistic human motion using motion capture data in order to define motion for humanoid animation based on H-Anim standard. In order to implement this, we have defined a data structure capable of receiving motion capture data and implemented a motion browser. The human motion data structure defined in this paper is based on X3D and intended to have compatibility through networks and various browsers.

This study focuses on the behavioural lexical classification for extracting animation character actions and the analysis of the character's upper and lower body movements. The behaviour and state of characters in the animation industry are crucial, and digital technology is enhancing the industry's value. However, research on animation motion application technology and behavioural lexical classification is still lacking. Therefore, this study aims to classify the predicates enabling animation motion, differentiate the upper and lower body movements of characters, and apply the behavioural lexicon's motion data. The necessity of this research lies in the potential contributions of advanced character motion technology to various industrial fields, and the use of the behavioural lexicon to elucidate and repurpose character motion. The research method applies a grammatical, behavioural, and semantic predicate classification and behavioural motion analysis based on the character's upper and lower body movements.

In the whole world, the research about the VLSI implementation of motion estimation algorithm is progressed to actively full (brute force) search algorithm research with the development of systolic array possible to parallel and pipeline processing. But, because of processing time's limit in a field to handle a huge data quantily such as a high definition television, many problems are happened to full search algorithm. In the paper, as a fast processing to using parallel scheme for the serial input image data, motion estimator of systolic array structure verifying that processing time is improved in contrast to the conventional full search algorithm.

In this paper, we propose the visual simulation system for virtual reality motion rider system. The visual simulation system can apply verity virtual reality system. This paper deals with programs on 3D automatic creation of terrain, road design, and a realtime rendering program for the virtual reality system. For the 3D automatic creation of terrain, DEM data and rectangular grid method are applied. We can make two different road object with the road design program. One of them includes road definition, and the other is obtained by using 'NURBS curve.' Visual simulation is consisted by additional modeling and real-time rendering. We can apply the programs made in this way to visual system of driving simulator.

In this paper, a modelling technique for simulating self-propelled ships in waves is presented. The flow is modelled using a RANS solver coupled with an actuator disk model for the propeller. The motion of the ship is taken into consideration in the definition of the actuator disk region as well as the advance ratio of the propeller. The RPM of the propeller is controlled using a PID-controller with constraints added on the maximum permissible RPM increase rate. Results are presented for a freely surging model in regular waves with different constraints put on the PID-controller. The described method shows promising results and allows for the studying of several factors relating to self-propulsion. However, more validation data is needed to judge the accuracy of the model.

A theoretical and experimental study was carried out to predict the drop size distribution of the pressure swirl atomizer. Various analytical methods using the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability theory were tried to examine the wave growth on cylindrical liquid sheets. Cylinderical liquid sheets were extended to the case with the conical sheets. Perturbations due to tangential motion as well as longitudinal one were taken into account. And it was assumed that the breakup occurs when amplitude ratio exceeds exp(12), drop sizes were predicted only by theoretical approach. Drop size distribution was obtained by using maximum entropy formalism. Seven constraints in the form of the definition of mean diameter were used in this formulation in order to avoid the difficulties of estimating source terms. In this study $D_{10}$ only was introduced into the formulation as a constraint. The predicted drop size and drop size distribution agreed well with the measured data.
