| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research project is to analyze vocabularies in team presentation, and then to develop an environment which enables us to produce "team-presentation" animation on the World Wide Web (WWW).
We first developed an autonomous locomotion system named T4 to animate agents based on captured data. It was presented at Computer Animation 2001. We also developed a TTS (Text-To-Speech) library named MLSLib. It enables multiple agents to speak simultaneously. It was presented in Journal of WSCG. We then developed a spatial-temporal-constraint-based cooperative motion generator.
On the other hand, we also analyzed vocabularies in team presentation based on some literature and real-world TV programs. We then designed a team-presentation animation language, and we developed it on the WWW.
Our experiments showed that the system well produces team-presentation animation and proved the validity of our approach.
