This paper explores a behavior planning approach to automatically generate realistic
motions for animated characters. Motion clips are abstracted as high-level behaviors and …

A humanoid robot that can go up and down stairs, crawl underneath obstacles or simply
walk around requires reliable perceptual capabilities for obtaining accurate and useful …

This paper presents the real time processing of optical motion capture with pan-tilt camera
tracking. Pan-tilt camera tracking expands the range of capturing field dynamically. The …

This paper presents a solution to the locomotion planning problem for digital actors. The
solution is based both on probabilistic motion planning and on motion capture blending and …

With the development of biped robots, systems became able to navigate in a 3 dimensional
world, walking up and down stairs, or climbing over small obstacles. We present a method …

We present a data structure and an algorithm for real-time path planning of a humanoid
robot. Due to the many degrees of freedom, the robots shape and available actions are …

This paper addresses an integrated humanoid motion planning scheme including both
advanced algorithmic motion planning technique and dynamic pattern generator so that the …

We present methods for extracting optimal paths from motion planning roadmaps. Our
system enables any combination of optimization criteria, such as collision detection …

This work studies locomotion planning of humanoid robots to pass through narrow spaces.
Humanoid robots can alter the style of the locomotion while wheeled robots can not. The …

This paper proposes a method for a humanoid robot to generate 3D model of the
environment using a stereo vision, find a movable space using it and plan feasible …
