Presentation
Our TVCG paper on saliency-driven gaze animation is presented at SCA 2024!
Our IEEE TVCG paper “Real-time Multi-map Saliency-driven Gaze Behavior for Non-conversational Characters” is presented at ACM/Europgraphics Symposium on Computer Animation (SCA 2024) in Montreal, Canada. This paper introduces the first real-time fully data-driven gaze animation technique with unprecedent of level of realism. Still time to read our paper.
Symposium “Human Movement from the Origins to the Olympics”
It was a great honour for us to present our work on pedestrian movement, from the individual to the crowd, as well as the experimental approaches we have been able to develop in real and virtual conditions. It was a presentation with several voices, reflecting the complementary nature of our…
SocNav Associate team
Today was the official launch of the SocNav Associate Team. The SocNav team is funded by Inria, promoting an interdisciplinary collaboration between Inria Centre de l’Université de Rennes (France) and Cirris – Centre interdisciplinaire de recherche en réadaptation et intégration sociale (Canada). More broadly, this project involves Cirris, LogVS team, VirtUs…
VirtUs is at the “Fête des Sciences 2022”, in Rennes
The VirtUs team is participating the “Fete des Sciences”, 2022 edition. We are performing live demonstrations in Virtual Reality of our immersive simulations. We also showcase some of our animation techniques, and show movies of recent experiments we performed. Please visit and join us if you are in Rennes.
UnderPressure? ACM SCA paper presentation
Lucas Mourot was presenting some of the recent work of his PhD at the ACM Symposium on Applied Perception last week. If you are interested in our approach to detect foot contacts using Deep Learning and Ground Reaction Force estimation for animating virtual characters, you can check out our paper,…
Papers at ACM MIG 2022
VirtUs is involved in 5 publications conditionnally accepted to the ACM 2022 conference on Motion and Interactions in Games (MIG 2022). Meet you soon in Guanajuato!
Paper accepted at Plos CB
Guess what happens when 2 groups of people cross? Stripes. In this paper recently accepted for publication to PlosCB, we explore the formation of stripes in crossing groups of people: stripe detection method, stripe features, dependence on crossing angle, etc. etc. Everything you’ve wanted to know about stripes but were…
Our “One-Man-Crowd” paper is among nominees for TVCG – Best Journal Paper award at IEEE VR 2022
Our paper “The One-Man-Crowd: Single User Generation of Crowd Motions Using Virtual Reality” (first author Tairan Yin) appeared in the list of nominees for the TVCG Best Paper Award at the IEEE VR 2022 conference, where it was presented. This paper introduces a brand new method for creating crowd datasets……
