Description
Skeletal animation is a technique in computer animation in which a character
is represented in two parts: a surface representation used to draw the character
(called skin or mesh) and a hierarchical set of interconnected bones (called
the skeleton or rig) used to animate (pose and keyframe) the mesh. While
this technique is often used to animate humans or more generally for organic
modeling, it only serves to make the animation process more intuitive and the
same technique can be used to control the deformation of any object — a door,
a spoon, a building, or a galaxy.
This technique is used in virtually all animation systems where simplified
user interfaces allows animators to control often complex algorithms and a huge
amount of geometry; most notably through inverse kinematics and other "goaloriented" techniques. In principle, however, the intention of the technique is never to imitate real anatomy or physical processes, but only to control the deformation of the mesh data.
