ABSTRACT
Interactive, life-like characters can enhance motivation, communication, and knowledge retention in computer-based learning [Lester et al. 2000]. However, until now, the development cost and computational requirements for highquality animation have limited its widespread use.

Creating Interactive Robotic Characters: Through a combination of artificial intelligence and professional animation
HRI'15 Extended Abstracts: Proceedings of the Tenth Annual ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction Extended AbstractsWe are integrating artificial intelligent agents with generic animation systems in order to provide socially interactive robots with expressive behavior defined by animation artists. Such animators will therefore be able to apply principles of ...
Promoting self-regulated learning in web-based learning environments
Self-regulated learning with the Internet or hypermedia requires not only cognitive learning strategies, but also specific and general meta-cognitive strategies. The purposes of the Study2000 project, carried out at the TU Dresden, were to develop and ...
System for authoring highly interactive, personality-rich interactive characters
SCA '04: Proceedings of the 2004 ACM SIGGRAPH/Eurographics symposium on Computer animationWe describe an innovative system for authoring expressive, fully autonomous interactive characters. The focus of our work is creating a system to allow rich authoring that captures as much of the artistic intent of the author in procedural form as we ...
