Animation production system and animation production method based on action capture

Abstract

The invention provides an animation production system and an animation production method based on action capture. The animation production method comprises the following steps: fixing an action capture device on a limb part of a simulation model, wherein the simulation model is a model with the same limb structure as a to-be-manufactured animation character; controlling the limb part to act so as to enable the action capture device to generate action feature data representing limb actions; and associating the action feature data to a limb part corresponding to the animation character to achieve action production of the animation character. By adopting the animation production method provided by the invention to produce the action of the animation character, the limit action which cannot be shown by the conventional real person motion capture can be produced, and the non-humanoid animation character can be produced by adopting the action capture method. Moreover, by adopting the animation production system provided by the invention, animation production based on action capture can be achieved without a real person, so that the labor cost of animation capture can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of animation production, in particular to an animation production system and animation production method based on motion capture. Background technique [0002] Due to the development of inertial sensing technology and optical capture technology, human gesture motion capture has gradually been applied in animation production, sports training and other fields, especially in the field of animation production. [0003] Motion capture in the field of animation production is to fix the motion capture sensor or optical capture point on the body of the motion capture personnel, realize the acquisition of the motion characteristics of the motion capture personnel when the motion capture personnel is moving, and associate the acquired motion characteristics with the animation The body movements of the person. Due to the limitations of the physical structure and ability of the motion capture personnel, the m...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Due to the limitations of the physical structure and ability of the motion capture personnel, the motion capture personnel can only perform conventional sports actions, and cannot perform extreme actions such as big splits and continuous somersaults. Therefore, motion capture based on live action can only realize the production of realistic animations. It cannot be used in the production of extreme action animations, let alone exaggerated animations; for such animations, animators still need frame-by-frame K pictures

[0004] In addition, because it is difficult for other animals to perform corresponding actions according to human thoughts, motion capture is limited to animation production of characters and humanoid characters, and cannot be widely applied to animation production of other types of animals.
