About this book

This book contains the invited papers and a selection of research papers submitted to Computer Animation '93, the fifth international workshop on Computer Animation, which was held in Geneva on June 16-18, 1993. This workshop, now an annual event, has been organized by the Computer Graphics Society, the University of Geneva, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne. During the international workshop on Computer Animation '93, the sixth Computer-generated Film Festival of Geneva, was also held. The volume presents original research results and applications experience to the various areas of computer animation. Most of the contributions are related to motion control, visualization, human animation, and rendering techniques.
