  2. Keyframe Animation • Set target positions for vertices at “key” frames in animations • Linearly interpolate vertex positions between targets at intervening frames • Lots can go wrong (like the feet) • Can be fixed by adding key frames • Piecewise linear approach to animation • Need same number and configuration of vertices at key frames for intervening frames to make sense • Often need to find correspondences between two collections of vertices A motivating example from: Sederberg & Greenwood, A Physically-BasedApproach to 2-D Shape Blending, Proc. SIGGRAPH 92

  4. Polar Decomposition • Linear affine interpolation of transformation matrices does not accommodate rotation • Let M be the upper-left 3x3 submatrix ofa 4x4 homogeneous transformation matrix • Decompose: M = QS • Q: non-linearly varying part (rotation) • S: linearly varying part (scale, shear) • Initialize Q = M • Replace Q = ½ (Q + Q-T) until it convergence to a 3x3 rotation matrix (QT = Q-1) • Then Q contains the rotation part of M • And S = QTM contains the scaling part • Interpolate S linearly per-element • Interpolate Q using quaternions
