Summary

In medicine, augmented reality (AR) technology can offer added value over traditional education, assessment and interventional approaches. By combining our expertise in motion capture, 3D anatomical modelling and AR technology, new solutions can be proposed to improve medical treatment.

In this project, we developed an anatomical see-through tool to visualize and analyze patient’s anatomy in real time and in motion for applications in sports medicine and rehabilitation. This tool allows healthcare professionals to visualize joint kinematics, where the bones are accurately rendered as a holographic overlay on the subject (like an X-ray vision) and in real-time as the subject performs the movement.

Summary

The goal of this project was to simulate reverse shoulder prostheses (RSA) to evaluate the variability of several biomechanical factors and the impact on the range of motion. In particular, we were interested in evaluating the effect of glenoid lateralization, humeral inclination and critical shoulder angle (CSA). These computer-assisted simulations provided operating parameters which aimed to minimize the onset of articular conflicts and luxations.

In this project, Artanim was responsible for dynamically simulating reverse shoulder prostheses from kinematic data.

Dance piece in immersive VR

Project Info

Cie Gilles Jobin

Year:
2017

Summary

Blending art with technology, Gilles Jobin in collaboration with Artanim developed VR_I, a work in which the creator questions our perception of reality and enters new unexplored and unchartered territories for contemporary dance. Thanks to the virtual reality (VR) technology developed by Artanim, VR_I viewers equipped with VR headsets and backpack computers move freely in a total virtual space.

Five viewers at a time may explore this world, moving in turn in an endless desert, an urban landscape or inside a loft at the top of a mountain. Participants each embody an avatar that faithfully replicates their movements, enhancing the feeling of immersion in the virtual world while also enabling them to see their peers. During the experience, participants can thus interact physically and even communicate with the others. Five virtual dancers then come to blur their perception, multiplying, growing to the point of becoming giants or becoming tiny. With these effects of scale, Gilles Jobin addresses the concept of spatiality in a truly original way.

VR_I was selected at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival and received, among others, the Grand Prix Innovation and the Audience Award for best performance at the 49th edition of the Festival du nouveau cinéma de Montréal. VR_I was on tour around the globe from 2017-2020.

Summary

We collaborated with the French Ski Federation (FFS) to make 3D scans of their best ski cross athletes. From the 3D bodies, garments were made to measure to maximize the aerodynamics of athletes at downhill. Technical clothing that earned them precious hundredths at the Olympics in PyeongChang 2018.

Summary

A sample model on a higher technological level, such as a precise virtual 3D prototype, contains innovative numerical fitting information (e.g., data about the areas of compression of a garment) that could improve the design and quality of the final sports garment and better satisfy the customer.

The aim of this research project was thus to reform existing garment prototyping processes for the active sportswear sector. The main focus was on the definition of accurate physical and mechanical high-tech sports fabric properties and on the use of virtual sports body animations to perform accurate simulation of sports garments.

In this project, Artanim was in charge of providing realistic body animations of different sports (alpine skiing, Nordic skiing, running and hiking). Moreover, Artanim worked on the development of software tools to improve the fabric measurements protocol by analyzing body motion and deformation.
