Current Work

• Humanoid Animation (H-Anim) overview on web3d.org site

Joe and Don are working each Monday night [1700-1900 pacific, Web3D teleconference line) on

• Confirming first the status of all current work relative to the approved H-Anim Specification
  • X3D Basic Examples for H-Anim
  • X3D tooltips, X3D DOCTYPE Documentation and X3D Schema Documentation for the H-Anim nodes
  • X3D Player Support for H-Anim
  • X3D Authoring Tool Support for H-Anim including X3D-Edit
  • X3D Quality Assurance (QA) and X3D Validator

• As issues are sorted out, we re-visit the details of H-Anim skinning
  • Definitions, example test scenes, tool support
  • Proposing an improved H-Anim component for X3D v3.4
  • Editing a corresponding update to H-Anim ISO 19774 Specification

The group is working on

• interoperable, swappable behaviors
• motion capture
• facial animation
