Week 12 - Adding skeleton as actors and fix global transformation#
What did you do this week?#
I started this week by fixing the segmentation fault for the skinning test. I could not fix this as of now.
I imported the
RiggedFiguremodel into the Blender and I was quite impressed with how it visualizes each bone. So, I created a function that creates an arrow actor in place of a bone, and by applying the correct transformation, we get the bones of a model in place. Here’s a quick preview of bones in Blender vs bones in FURY:
After having the bones actor, I noticed that some bones are not aligned correctly. It was happening due to multiplication of the same transformation matrix twice.
I also created a function that calculates the total transformation of a node, it eliminates the need to use
timeline.get_valueinget_skin_timelinefunction.
What is coming up next week?#
It seems like I fixed everything, but we are not getting the correct model at timestamp 0. We need to find the cause and fix it!
Cleaning the Simple Animation PR #643, and merging it.
Did you get stuck anywhere?#
While applying the timeline, we were getting the identity matrix for timestamp 0.0s, it was set to a new value before. We figured this in our meeting that it’s happening due to some model’s animation not starting from 0.0s.
