Storage medium storing animation image generating program
First Claim
1. A storage medium storing an animation image generating program which is run under the control of a computer system, the animation image generating program comprising the steps of:
- controlling selection of specific vertices of a standard model and a user model;
providing control such that first target vertices are associated with second target vertices where the first target vertices are the selected specific vertices of the standard model and the second target vertices are the selected specific vertices of the user model;
providing control by arithmetic means such that coordinates of the first target vertices approximate to those of the second target vertices, to generate fitting information; and
animating the user model based on animation data of the standard model and on the fitting information.

Abstract
An animation image generating program is provided which allows animation images to be readily generated by CG without complicated setups, and more particularly the animation image generating program is suited to generate a plurality of types of face animation images by CG. The animation image generating program includes the steps of controlling selection of specific vertices of a standard model and a user model, providing control such that first target vertices are associated with second target vertices where the first target vertices are the selected specific vertices of the standard model and the second target vertices are the selected specific vertices of the user model, providing control by arithmetic means such that coordinates of the first target vertices approximate to those of the second target vertices, to generate fitting information, and animating the user model based on animation data of the standard model and on the fitting information.

11. A storage medium storing an animation image generating program which is run under the control of a computer system, the animation image generating program comprising the steps of:
-
controlling readout of a wire frame having target points on a face image of a standard model acting as a reference and readout of a face image of a user model;
controlling a CPU such that coordinates are specified in the face image of the user model by the wire frame set up by the user;
allowing the CPU to perform affine transformation of the coordinates of the target points of the standard model into target coordinates of the face image of the user model specified by the wire frame, to generate fitting information; and
animating the user model based on the fitting information and the standard model animation data. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
