Title:
- Nutty Tracks - Symbolic Animation Pipeline for Expressive Robotics
Presenter(s)/Author(s):
Abstract:
NuttyTracks is a symbolic real-time animation system for animating any robotic character using animation tools commonly used by professional animators. Our system brings artists and programmers closer to each other in the quest for creating the illusion of life in robotic characters.
