User interfaces can improve task performance by exploiting the powerful human capabilities for spatial cognition. This opportunity has been demonstrated by many prior experiments....
A physically based system of interacting polyhedral objects is used to model self-assembly and spontaneous organization of complex structures. The surfaces of the polyhedra in the ...
Deformable models in the \physically-based" paradigm are almost always formulated in an ad-hoc fashion, not related to physical reality { they apply the equations on physics i...

In this paper we introduce a framework for instrumenting (“rigging”) characters that are modeled as dynamic elastic bodies, so that their shapes can be controlled by an animat...

Creating artificial life forms through evolutionary robotics faces a “chicken and egg” problem: learning to control a complex body is dominated by problems specific to its s...
