We have recently seen great progress in building photorealistic animatable full-body codec avatars, but generating high-fidelity animation of clothing is still difficult. To address these difficulties, we propose a method to build an animatable cloth...
Recently, there have been a lot of researches to synthesize / edit the motion of a single avatar in the virtual environment. However, there has not been so much work of simulating continuous interactions of multiple avatars such as fighting. In this...
Just as the question says. Does VRChat punish people for ripping avatars? Maybe I'm missing it, but I'm not finding a definite answer. If so, how do I go about reporting it? ...
We introduce GaussianAvatar-Editor, an innovative framework for text-driven editing of animatable Gaussian head avatars that can be fully controlled in expression, pose, and viewpoint. Unlike static 3D Gaussian editing, editing animatable 4D Gaussian...
Creating high-fidelity and editable head avatars is a pivotal challenge in computer vision and graphics, boosting many AR/VR applications. While recent advancements have achieved photorealistic renderings and plausible animation, head editing, especi...
Virtual humans play a pivotal role in social virtual environments, shaping users' VR experiences. The diversity in available options and users' preferences can result in a heterogeneous mix of appearances among a group of virtual humans. The resultin...
