Test Frank
This demo give the user the possibility to activate selectively every human's movement.
The majority of the movements were taken by motion capture; the simpler ones were edited by hand.
Good speed!
This page contains the demo created using Frank's human control software.
These are simple demos with demonstrative purposes, created for testing
the human.
I recommend to read all the warings at the bottom of this document in order
to correctly view the worlds in these page.
Please, wait the loading of the Java classes; before they are loaded, the human
will not move and react to the user... so be patient ;)... wait.
Please, note that Frank is not a simple vrml human, but an integrated project that permits the user to include a human in a vrml world and to program it through a high level interface from a Java applet (using EAI).
For a brief description of the project take a look here: What's Frank project?.

Guided tour to Bergamo (city near Milan, Italy)
This doesn't want to be a complet tour. It's just a demo to show how the
human can be used in order to guide the user through vrml worlds.
I suggest to deactivate Collision Detection in order to avoid slow frame rate.
Penalty
A penalty simulation. Click on Frank to start the animation.
This runs on all vrml browsers
Attention: in order to correctly view the worlds in
this page you must have an EAI capable vrml browser. Due to compatibility
problems, I suggest you to use Cosmo Player 1.0x. In fact, the EAI is used
a lot and the bugs in different versions of CP and other browser can cause
some problems.
This software were tested with Cosmo Player 1.0 and Cosmo Player beta3a.
Due to a bug in CP1.0 in this page I can put only the demo where I use only
one human. In fact CP1.0 has a bug with nested PROTOS. For these demos
(not present yet) you will have to use CP beta3a or another browser.
NB: It has been noted that sometimes a second loading of a world containing the human causes the browser to crash. A new load with a clean browser brings no problems.
NB: In case of crashes during loading, try to load without other applications in background.
Please, report me the bugs you may encounter sending a mail to: ignazio@logicom.it.
