Moving avator go into action according to music}

Figure 1. Configuration of the entire system

Currently, avatars used in various mobile devices or webs allow the user to design the shape of the avatar, but most of them are only to repeat a stationary form or a programmed operation. However, in the present invention, the avatar is extracted in real time by extracting necessary information from the multimedia file such as mp3. This can be applied to any type of avatar and you can create your own motions to create a character with your own personality.

Recognize and quantify the sound of music as melody, chord, rhythm, etc. as the size, height, and waveform of sound waves, and make it into input according to time variables to combine with multimedia authoring tools and to perform animation of CG or avatar. This program allows the individual to set the order of movement, pattern and range, intensity and speed through the UI screen.

That is, the intensity and speed of the movement, such as the movement or rotation of the right hand, the left hand, the right foot, the left foot, and the head according to the input in time, change in real time according to the size and frequency of the input. In other words, the individual sets the part of the movement, the order or pattern, the speed and the range, and the like to create a form of her own dance.

This not only creates various dance movements according to the same music, but even if the same setting is made, various movements can be made according to various kinds of music, and thus various personalized entertainment businesses can be created based on the same music.

After analyzing the music files through buffering, they are received as inputs from multimedia authoring programs (Flash or SMIL, SVG, etc.), combined, and the resulting animation based on them.

More advanced models can create avatars as inputs, create basic multimedia programs, and allow animations to be executed according to interactively input music.

.

In the present invention, instead of simply selecting an item to decorate the avatar, information such as melody or rhythm is extracted from a music file and combined with various motions of the avatar to move according to the music. Also, just like decorating an avatar, the avatar's motion can be modified as much as the individual's taste and personality. If you use it, you can not only listen to music from music broadcasting contents but also add fun to attract many users, and if you can attach music and dancing avatars to your personal mail, you can express your personality on various hair devices. It can be a means. It will also be able to provide content such as cyber nightclub models (community models where avatars dance on virtual stages while watching each other's avatars and dance moves, and chatting or meeting while watching them).
