| Title: |
Computing Environment that Produces Realistic Motions for an Animatronic Figure |
| Abstract: |
A system for producing motions for an animatronic figure is disclosed.
The system is configured to produce different types of motions in
real-time and in a life-like manner. The motion software module forms a
composite motion by combining the user-inputted motion with user-selected
fixed sequences and/or with algorithmically calculated motion. The
motions of the animatronic figure can further be filtered to produce
motions that are life-like. Combined motions are formed by superimposing,
modulating, or modifying component motions. Motions are filtered based on
user-inputted commands and commands determined from a stimulus and
filtered to create a life-like motion.
