Bøker av Daniel Thalmann

In its updated edition, this book covers techniques used in simulating crowds, particularly in video games and film. Covers path planning, and introduces the important concept of gaze attention - individuals seeming conscious of their environment and of others.

Deformable avatars are virtual humans that deform themselves during motion. The research requires models for capturing of geometrie and kinematic data, the synthesis of the realistic human shape and motion, the parametrisation and motion retargeting, and several appropriate deformation models.
