Creating Armature for 3D Object Models

Rad opisuje jedan od načina izrade animacija u 3D dizajnu te objašnjava moguće pojednostavljenje i ubrzanje procesa izrade. U ovom slučaju ubrzanje je ostvareno proceduralnim generiranjem armature za gotove modele. Razrađen je jedan od mogućih algoritama, a temelji se na petljama rubova mreže objekta. Opisani pristup podijeljen je u dva dijela, sadrži nekoliko parametara te omogućuje korisniku intervenciju u slučaju manjih pogrešaka. Rad pokriva detaljno objašnjenje implementacije u programskom alatu Blender i sadrži ocjenu izrađenog algoritma na nekoliko modela različitih svojstava. Na kraju su navedeni mogući pristupi za poboljšanje implementacije te alternativni načini generiranja kostura.This thesis describes one of the possible ways for creating animations in 3D design and possible approach for simplifying and accelerating creation process. In this case simplification is achieved by procedural generation of armature for prepared models. Within the scope of the project an algorithm is implemented, and it's based on edge loops of object mesh. Described algorithm is divided in two parts, parametrized and enables user intervention in case of minor errors. Thesis includes detailed explanation of implementation in 3D modeling tool Blender and evaluation of algorithm on several test models with various properties. Possible alternative approaches for generating armatures and methods for optimizing created product are listed in the end
