Construction of a distributed 3-D multi-user virtual space by applying natural humanoid animation

摘要

We implemented a system based on our proposed method for realizing natural action of a hierarchic structured humanoid in a 3-D multi-user virtual space. We therefore applied the 3-D virtual space description language VRML, the network-adaptable programming language Java and the humanoid action library constructed on the Internet. We studied techniques for the effective sharing and real-time transmission of natural humanoid action information on the Internet as well as for the distribution of a 3-D multi-user virtual space system which provides several services by using distributed object technology
