Description

Social computing and informatics brings together people, technology, information and innovation. People, organizations, industries and communities interact, connect and collaborate in social context. Digital systems support online research, education, health, communication and entertainment. Organizations harness the power of social computing and informatics to enhance business transactions and boost reputation. Amazon applies social computing to engage and captivate customers, boasting impressive 27.8 million Facebook page likes and 2.7 million followers. Amazon promptly and directly responds to the customers on Facebook, swiftly addressing all comments and ensuring that clients are well satisfied with the services. Due to comprehensive collection of feedback and reviews from the previous customers, effectively demonstrating the excellence of its products and services, most people trust Amazon. Hence, without digital systems and connections to the Internet nothing can be achieved. Bachelor of Information Science (BIS) level four or fourth year consists of 10 core course units or subjects, with 5 course units per semester. BIS CIS 403: Social Computing and Informatics explores human-computer/human-machine/human-machine product interactions and its impact in the society.

Lesson 7 Computer Animation - Facial Animation Trending!
Facial Anination deals with the simulation of the different facial expresions a character can make. Inorder to simulate conversation, visible emotional expressions(e.g Saddness, Happines), we need to understand the different mechanisims and muscle structures that the face uses to accurately represent the emotion / visemes. generally the facial expressions and visemes in animation relies on three different appoaches: • Muscle-based models • Capture real human data • Expression Cloning

Lesson 9 Computer Animation - MOTION CAPTURE AND PHYSICALLY BASED ANIMATION OF CHARACTERS Trending!
There are three methods • Create them manually • Use real human / animal motions • Use physically based simulation Using Real Human (Animal) Motion • Real human (animal) motion is realistic • Much faster and cheaper than manually producing the data We use the motion capture device (Mocap) • There are four major types of Mocaps – Optical – Magnetic – Inertial trackers

Lesson 10 Computer Animation - MOTION CAPTURE AND PHYSICALLY BASED ANIMATION OF CHARACTERS Trending!
Motion tracking or motion capture started as a photogrammetric analysis tool in biomechanics research in the 1970s and 1980s, and expanded into education, training, sports and recently computer animation for television, cinema, and video games as the technology matured. A performer wears markers near each joint to identify the motion by the positions or angles between the markers. Acoustic, inertial, LED, magnetic or reflective markers, or combinations of any of these, are tracked, optimally at least two times the frequency rate of the desired motion, to submillimeter positions. The resolution of the system is important in both the spatial resolution and temporal resolution as motion blur causes almost the same problems as low resolution.
