  1. Human Body Movement AnalysisDecoding the Movement and Emotion A three years research and application development project Yunyu Wang, Professor C. C. Lin, Associate Professor W. C. Chen, Professor

  2. Origin--2003 • The Exchange/Discussion • People from Animation, Dance, Laban Movement Analysis, Computer Science and Sports Science. • Topics about Movement Quality, Emotion, Expression, Skill Analysis, Dance Innovation and LMA Application.

  3. Project Description • Period: • Three-year: 2006 to 2009 • First year: April 1, 2006 • Participants • Professors: 5 • Graduate students: 18 • Full time staffs and technicians: 5

  4. TNUA • The College of Dance • Graduate School of Technology and Arts • Center for Art and Technology • The E Motion Lab

  5. The E Motion Lab

  6. Partner Organizations and Institutions • NCPES(National College of Physical Education and Sports) • ITRI(Industrial Technology Research Institute) • Academia Sinica(http://www.sinica.edu.tw/as/intro/hist_e.html)

  7. WHY ？ • In Dance • In Animation • In Exercise and Sports • In health industry

  8. Sub-Project IMotion Database and Metadata

  9. Motion Database and Metadata • Project Leadership and Project integration • Theory development, movement knowledge analysis • Movement Data Collection • Motion Database Schema and Structure • Metadata

  10. Sub-project IIMotion Synthesis and Detection Motion Synthesis and Detection

  11. Motion Synthesis and Detection • A kernel Engine for Laban motion and emotion analysis • Laban motion • Effort • Shape • Body • Emotion • Cyclic • Non-Cyclic

  16. Sub-project III Industry Applications

  17. Application… • in Dance • Dance engine for Choreography • Dance analysis • Dance creation • Interactive Dance Sub-3

  18. Application… • in movie and animation • Motion/Emotion Quantity Model and Synthesis techniques • Common Motion Language • Animation Plug-in • Game engine Sub-3

  19. Application… • In Exercise and Sports • Efficient and safe (Basketball shooting and Discus throwing) • Online instruction and learning • Skill Analysis and diagnosis Sub-3

  20. Application… • In Health industry • Better Rehab. --Motivating Moves Janet Hamburg (University of Kansas) • Fitness Instructor ---My Best Friend • Online Stretching, exercise monitoring, … Sub-3

  21. The End In describing movement, we must make a mental note of the most important intermediary positions.
