The Uncanny Valley: Effect of Realism on the Impression of Artificial Human Faces
Roboticists believe that people will have an unpleasant impression of a humanoid robot that has an almost, but not perfectly, realistic human appearance. This is called the uncanny valley, and is not limited to robots, but is also applicable to any type ...
The uncanny valley: No need for any further judgments when an avatar looks eerie
AbstractConsidering that a 3D scanning technology allows to create avatars that embody more authentic and rich information about its users, it could be expected that enhancing avatar realism will increase the accuracy of thin-slice judgments of the ...
Highlights- Avatar realism increased a feeling of eeriness.
- Eeriness predicts moderate to high level of the activation of aversive system.
- Eeriness inhibited the information processing oriented for thin-slice judgment (IP).
- The amount of ...
Portable real-time character rigs for virtual reality experiences
DigiPro '16: Proceedings of the 2016 Symposium on Digital ProductionIn this presentation we describe a work-in-progress approach to a portable character animation pipeline for real-time scenarios that can dramatically reduce iteration time and also increase character quality and flexibility. Simply put, it is a What You ...
