This assumption simplifies many aspects for d esigning physically based animations, like locomotion, but comes with the price of excluding characters of arbitrary deformable geometries.\nTo reme dy this, our framework makes use of a spatio-temporal actuation subspace b uilt off of the natural vibration modes of the character geometry. \nThe resulting actuation is coupled to a reduced fast soft body simulation, all owing us to formulate a locomotion optimization problem that is tractable for a wide variety of high resolution deformable characters.\n\nRegistrati on Category: Full Access, Full Access Supporter\n\nLanguage Format: Englis h Language\n\nSession Chair: Hao (Richard) Zhang (Simon Fraser University, Amazon) URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2024/program/?id=papers_677&sess=sess120 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
