The advantage is that all the complex animation processes can be handled by the GPU, while the CPU only performs minor translation and rotation interpolation. There is no need for a CoordinateInterpolator or a NormalInterpolator!</span></div><div><p style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">All of this can be achieved using the current HAnim specification.
