MUSCULO-SKELETAL SHAPE SKINNING

摘要

A method for use in animation includes establishing a model having a plurality of bones with muscles attached to the bones (102), binding skin to the muscles when the model is in a first pose with each vertex of the skin being attached at a first attachment point on a muscle (104), deforming the model into a second pose (106), and selecting a second attachment point for each vertex of the skin in the second pose (108). A storage medium stores a computer program for causing a processor based system (700) to execute these steps, and a system (700) for use in animation includes a processing system configured to execute these steps.
