Abstract(ENG)

Recently, motion sensors are increasingly used in order to generate natural motion of a human character. Some 3D tools provide with the function of generating character animation using captured data by motion sensors. However, the animation results by the tools are dependent on the tools, which means that the same tools must be used when displaying the animation again. In other words, the animation data cannot be used in other applications. In addition, the animation generated is usually not displayed as 3D on the Web. This paper describes the modeling and animation method of a 3D character whose animation data obtained by a motion sensor. The data can be exchangeably used between different applications. It is based on ISO/IEC international standard H-Anim using a motion sensor such as Microsoft Kinect. It also includes the implementation of the animation using a motion sensor, and describes how to map joint hierarchy between H-Anim character and motion capture data.
