[x3d-public] Story-to-Motion

[John Carlson]

Please let us know of supporting authoring systems and players.

>From what I can see of the video and paper, the Story-To-Motion is more
about position of the humanoid and rotation of joints.  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!

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.
