Abstract:

Animating individual scan data in an efficient and easy way is still quite a big challenge. Even more if anatomical correctness is required concerning the deformation by body movement.
We present a methodology for transforming individual scan data into realistic animated human models by adapting the scan data to a template model based on anthropometric coherences (skeleton, muscles, tendons and chondrals). The methodology is demonstrated for a female body. It can be used for a male body or even fictive creatures as well. For modeling and animation 3ds Max is used, but the technique is not fixed to a specific commercial system.
This approach allows an easy examination of the correlation between the posture of a person and the ideal pattern for a specific pose or movement. As the pose of an athlete differs significantly from the standard standing pose this solution can be used for garment design for high-performance sports. Another possible application is the construction and comparison of patterns in standing and sitting position to be used for wheel-chaired people.
