If these are “Group”ed by keyword, and smooth transitions are accomplished by chaining animations, then some degree of automation can result. If result numbers are available in a potential tool like JAminate, Blender or a text editor, and accessible to human animators for optimization, all the better!</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I’m thinking more and more about parsing interpolators into JAminate, which has been a goal. Using JAminate or a spreadsheet, one could potentially group key-fractions and keyValues, then output interpolators and routes could be published in addition to chaining of moves with Boolean Sequencers.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">John </div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Nov 22, 2023 at 7:18 PM Joe D Williams <<a href="mailto:joedwil@earthlink.net">joedwil@earthlink.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204)"><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><p style="margin:0.1rem 0px;line-height:1;font-family:arial,sans-serif">It might be that the closest x3d going on with this is in web3d x3d HAnim WG facial animation standards-track. The facial mesh of various densities are organized into regions activated in certain sets to perform a certain expression. So, standard keywords and parameter sets can activate standard related areas of the mesh to allow use of standardized animations as well as serve as a prime basis for the personalization of the Humanoid that you really want to do. This is not a quick and simple effort. It is very interesting, design-friendly, much simplified authoring, and much more standardizable and demonstratable at all levels of expression using the hanim displacer concept. </p></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
