Abstract

To produce a 3D virtual character's face expression of human’s natural face expressions, facial motion capture is the technique considered to be the most effective one, especially in terms of production speed. However, there are still some results showing that the expression is not so expressive, especially on the side of the 3D character which has a different facial features than the real models regarding to the application of it. In this research, the correction of the basic expressions of faces in the process of facial motion retargeting was done by using blendshape interpolation method that was based on fuzzy logic. Blendshape interpolation method is the method used to combine multiple shapes into one blend with the concept of interpolation. In this research, the process of blendshape meets the concept of linear interpolation which the movement of a point of vertexon blendshape used straight lines . Blendshape method will be run as a proofreader on the results of retargeting process. Theweighting of blendshape will be assigned automatically from the results of the calculation of fuzzy logic, which refers to the input of the marker position of the facial motion retargeting. This weight is then used to provide improvements to create more expressive expressions. This process will be easier and faster to do than doing customize one by one at the vertex point manually. To avoid the appearance of irregular motion (haphazard movement), it is necessary to give the limitation of the weight (weight constraint) with range of [0,1].Keywords : Blendshape, retargeting, fuzzy logic, facial motion capture.

Abstract

Shortest pathfinding problem has become a populer issue in Game’s Artificial Intelligent (AI). This paper discussed the effective way to optimize the shortest pathfinding problem, namely Navigation Mesh (NavMesh). This method is very interesting because it has a large area of implementation, especially in games world. In this paper, NavMesh was implemented by using A* (A star) algorithm and examined in Unity 3D game engine. A* was an effective algorithm in shortest pathfinding problem because its optimization was made with effective tracing using segmentation line. Pac-Man game was chosen as the example of the shortest pathfinding by using NavMesh in Unity 3D. A* algorithm was implemented on the enemies of Pac-Man (three ghosts),  which path was designed by using NavMesh concept. Thus, the movement of ghosts in catching Pac-Man was the result of this review of the effectiveness of this concept. In further research, this method could be implemented on several optimization programmes, such as Geographic Information System (GIS), robotics, and statistics.
