Template based procedural rigging of quadrupeds with custom manipulators

Character rigging is a process of endowing a character with a set of custom manipulators and controls making it easy to animate by the animators. These controls consists of simple joints, handles, or even separate characters selection windows. This research paper present an automated rigging system...
