Qumarion the digital mannequin lets you manipulate 3D models in real time
Once you’ve created and rigged a human 3D model, manipulating the figure into poses works pretty well with a mouse or tablet, and plenty of people do it all day every day, but the Qumarion digital mannequin lets you do 3D model manipulation in a much more natural, intuitive way. Just like setting up a doll or puppet, Qumarion lets you change your models just by changing the poses on the mannequin itself.
Created by Japan’s SoftEther from University of Tsukuba, and ViVienne from The University of Electro-Communications, Qumarion is a tiny 30-centimeter model that can be manipulated to direct the movements of a character in a 3D modeling environment in real-time at 120 frames per second. The mannequin uses 32 sensors on 16 joints to transmit the data to the 3D model and offers the kind of direct hand-to-model control that once took hours to accomplish through software.
The system is scheduled for release at the end of the year for about $750.
