MIT researchers have developed a technique that could revolutionize the animation industry by giving artists more flexibility in how they animate characters. Instead of sticking to a single conventional measurements or mathematical functions called barycentric coordinates, the new method allows the artist to experiment with different movements and expressions, specific to each individual animation. This…

A new technique developed by researchers at MIT gives animators more control over their creations by generating mathematical functions that determine how 2D and 3D shapes can bend, stretch and move through space. These functions, called barycentric coordinates, provide enhanced flexibility as opposed to traditional methods that restrict artists to a single option for shape-motion…

A new technique developed by researchers from MIT promises to revolutionize how artists animate characters in video games and animated films. Utilizing mathematical functions called barycentric coordinates, which define how 2D and 3D shapes can move, bend, and stretch in space, will give animators greater control over the motion of characters. Traditional animating methods often provide…

A group of MIT researchers have developed a technique that will allow artists better control over their 3D animations. The method uses mathematical functions known as barycentric coordinates, allowing 3D shapes to be manipulated. This offers more flexibility than traditional animation methods, which require starting from scratch for every change in animation. The developed method…

MIT researchers have developed a new tool that provides better control to animators in shaping their characters. The new technique works by generating mathematical functions, known as barycentric coordinates, that describe how 2D and 3D shapes in animations can move, stretch, and deform in space. By using these functions, an animator can tailor the movement…
