Animation and Simulation
AnimationAnima (lat.) – Atem,
Seele, Leben
The art of breathing life into something
Object-positioning(Motion Control)

Animation and Simulation„'Animating' is moving something which can't move itself. Animation adds to graphics the dimension of time. In order to animate something, the animator has to be able to specify, either directly or indirectly, how the 'thing' is to move through time and space.“

Animation and SimulationComputer animation approaches: • Keyframing: the animator draws key frames on a
computer. The computer creates the in-between frames more or less automatically
• Motion capture: Models often wear special badges that allow tracking their motion by cameras
• Simulation: Computer model simulates the motion of an object or structure, based on the laws of physics

Animation and Simulation • Relation to modeling
– Static modeling of geometry „Modeling“ along time axis
• Relation to simulation– Physics based, realistic animation
• Fluids, Clothes
