Opis

Englischer Kurztext The 14 papers in this volume vividly demonstrate the current state of research in real-time animation of complex articulated structures in particular (humans, legged robots, plants) and of dynamic scenes in general. Special emphasis is given on innovative approaches to the fast design of realistic movements, 2D and 3D deformations, and simulation optimization.
