As-Rigid-As-Possible Shape Manipulation

Imagine what professional animators can do with this.

i like what you've done here.

Hahaha! Hear, hear!

This is amazing technology. Will have huge impact on animation.

Huge impact? Doubt it. I'm only seeing 2d image manipulation here, and 3d manipulation is a "little bit" more complex.

I don't doubt it; I see 2D animation benefiting a lot from this. So easily being able to move joints on a 2D image, and putting weight on body parts to stop collapse... I find that really impressive.

well the same principles could be applied to a 3d model.

Because nobody uses 2D anymore, most certainly not television animators or independent game developers.

2D animation is everywhere, and this technology can probably still be adapted to be useful in 3D animation.

Short-sighted pessimism is a sad thing, indeed.

This is some really exciting technology! So will we see this as a flash plugin?
