 Abstract

We present a system that allows users to generate animations for 3D rigged geometry easily and quickly us- ing just a regular consumer Microsoft Kinect. The interactive system allows diverse meshes to be animated through the interaction of human body. Traditionally, creating expressive and convincing animation is a challenging and laborious. Our system is a real-time performance-based puppetry application for any rigged object, which makes the animation generation more playful. This paper describes the system in full, explaining the generation procedures, highlighting the technical contributions, and demonstrating many examples.
