Summary

3D In Motion (3DIM) was installed during the Caprices Festival 2015 in Crans-Montana. The setup combines motion capture and 3D visualizations. During the concerts, an interaction zone allows people to dance and their movements to be captured and converted into 3D graphics in real time. The generated visuals are then projected on a huge screen in the concert room.

The people could choose among six different 3D scenarios. Their individual performances were recorded and could be downloaded after the event.

Summary

While playing in an attic, Teo and Leonie stumble upon a necklace with extraordinary powers that allows them to travel through time and space. They are propelled through history and meet Leonardo da Vinci who attempts to bring them back to their time by all means. The three of them will have unbelievable adventures together, crossing paths with legendary characters, great explorers, notorious savants and ancient civilizations. They meet the greats of this world and take us behind the scenes of well known events as they truly unfolded, revealing some of History’s greatest secrets. The implications of their journeys take them further than they ever could have imagined.

For the trailer of this TV series created and realized by Kenzan SA, we performed the full performance capture of the characters (body and face), as well as the retargeting of animations on the 3D characters.

Summary

We created four 3D animations presenting the different external fixators of Gexfix. For each product, the animation shows the possible movements a patient can do when equipped with such a device.

To create these animations, movements were mainly recorded by motion capture. The 3D models of fixators and skeleton were provided by Gexfix.

Summary

The goal of this project was to develop a solution that aimed at creating a full body avatar of the user by merging head and body scans from different scanning technologies. The first task of this project was to investigate and prototype a solution that provided good quality textured head scans using an affordable multi-cameras system. Capturing the head with sufficiently high fidelity is of great importance to provide a convincingly realistic representation of the user.

The second task was to merge the results of the head scanning with body scan data using template fitting. This process allows easy extraction of body measurements for further usage and automatic generation of an internal skeleton for animation.

A dynamic analysis

Summary

Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is a rare condition that involves pain in the neck and shoulder, numbness and tingling of the fingers. It happens when the nerves or blood vessels are compressed in the thoracic outlet which is the area between the rib cage and clavicle.

The goal of this study was to better understand certain causes of TOS by performing a dynamic simulation of the shoulder complex. Repetitive arm and shoulder movements, as well as anatomical defects can play a role in the development of TOS. In this study, motion capture and medical imaging (CT, MRI) were combined to improve assessment of this condition in symptomatic patients.
