  • Clothwarp rigging cloth
    Patent number: 9659396
    Abstract: Simulating cloth garments can be a large challenge that requires both directability as well as stability. In various embodiments, cloth garments can be animated using a technique called “Clothwarp.” Clothwarp assists garment animation through methods of cloth articulation and simulation targeting. In one aspect, Clothwarp grants another level of directable control on simulation, allowing the artist to modify the influence of the warp, both as a target input into the simulation and as a cleanup tool on simulation results.
