Awesome Animations

Welcome to a small sampling of the work our staff and students undertake. Some of what you will see is a result of our research, and some we have done just for fun. We hope you enjoy our small display!

Morph Magic - Jay Jay vs Wei Liu Creator: Wong Tzu Yen Supervisors: Assoc Prof Amitava Datta and Dr Peter Kovesi Type: image/gif (2.1 Mb) Description: This morph sequence is created in 5 steps: Choose corresponding features on each image Interpolating the feature positions Generate the correspondences for all pixels in both images Warp (change shape) of the two images into intermediate shapes Interpolating the colours of two warped images. 1418 views since 30-06-2006	3D Reconstruction Creators: Dean Mathersand Ajmal Saeed Mian Supervisor: Assoc Prof Mohammed Bennamoun Type: video/x-msvideo (3.5 Mb) Description: Using a structured light system, we can reconstruct the complete 3D models of any objects and put them into a database. When an image of any of these objects is taken at a later time, we will have no problem in recognizing them. The video here shows the recognition process of several objects with some significant occlusion -- for instance, the bottom of the toy chef is not visible in the image; the tail of the toy dinosaur is missing -- yet all the objects were recognized successfully. Not only so, from the 3D models stored in the database, the missing parts of the objects can all be filled in. 957 views since 30-06-2006	Complex Roots Creator: Dr Gordon Royle Type: image/gif (2.3 Mb) Description: Complex roots of a series of chromatic polynomials of graphs. 1062 views since 30-06-2006
Random wind and restoration Creator: Jason Wong Supervisor: Assoc Prof Amitava Datta Type: video/mpeg (4.5 Mb) Description: Shows the more realistic randomness in the wind compared with the old method. Also shows more robust restoration of the plant to its original position as the wind is toggled on/off. 919 views since 30-06-2006	Combined Effects of Rain and Wind Gusts Creator: Jason Wong Supervisor: Assoc Prof Amitava Datta Type: video/mpeg (2.0 Mb) Description: The results of combining the wind gust (which are not visibily represented) and rain effects. 1073 views since 30-06-2006	Portals to Another World Creator: Nick Lowe Supervisor: Assoc Prof Amitava Datta Type: video/mpeg (3.8 Mb) Description: The Cube Room cell with a portal to the Landscape cell. 1283 views since 30-06-2006
