Avatars' Skeleton Connection and Movement Data Network Synchronization

Abstract

As the rapid development of computer graphics and network, virtual reality technology begin to penetrate the field of social network. Due to the limited function of single virtual reality device, the combination of different devices is a feasible approach to immerse people in the real world. In this paper, we novelly combine Kinect v1 with Leap Motion sensor for whole-body gesture capturing and overcome two difficulties, avatars' skeleton connection and movement data synchronization. The experiment approves that our method performs well. It could be a meaningful contribution to the future multi-player interactive virtual social platform.
