  • Publication number: 20170316595
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for providing a rigging tool. The method for providing a rigging tool includes receiving an input character, generating a basic rigging at the input character by using a skeleton extraction technique and a skinning weight technique, and providing a skeleton correction function and a skinning weight correction function on the basis of the generated basic rigging.

  • Publication number: 20130083165
    Abstract: Provided are an apparatus and method for extracting a texture image and a depth image. The apparatus of the present invention may project a pattern image on a target object, may capture a scene image on which the target image is reflected from the target object, and may simultaneously extract the texture image and the depth image using the scene image.

  • Publication number: 20120223939
    Abstract: Provided are a rendering method for monoscopic, stereoscopic, and multi-view computer generated imagery, a rendering system, and a recording medium thereof. When rendering an image sequence having a plurality of consecutive frames, standard frames are initially selected and rendered, and then normal frames between the selected standard frames are rendered by receiving rendering information of a preceding frame in time in a channel and rendering information of a subsequent frame as transfer functions, thereby reducing rendering time and rendering error. If the image sequence is a multi-channel image sequence for stereoscopic and multi-view imagery, rendering information of a simultaneous frame in a neighboring channel can be additionally received as a transfer function, thus allowing more efficient rendering.
