First Claim
Patent Images
1. A 3D animation conversion method using scripts, comprising:
- receiving a natural language script;
formalizing the script;
comparing the script with a motion database comprising multple motion clips and a motion index table which is used to obtained the motion clips corresponding to the script;
retrieving the corresponding motion clips; and
synthesizing a 3D animation according to the retrieved motion clips.

Abstract
A method that converts high-level scripts into 3D animations uses natural language for fast prototyping. The proposed method first transforms the natural language script into the metadata with high-level semantics, then matches the metadata to several motion clips in the motion databases, and finally, synthesizes these motion clips into a 3D animation.
