Abstract:
A method for transferring 3D image motion through a communication network said method comprising the steps of:configuring a virtual model to represent the 3D image structure and to simulate the 3D image motion, wherein the structure components positions and movements are programmed according to a behavioral set of rules; capturing time based 2D data sets representing specific and partial Key Fragments of the 3D image; transferring said virtual model through the network; transferring sequential sets of the said Key Fragments of each 2D data set through the network; creating visual 3D image display according to the transferred virtual model; relating the transferred Key Fragments to respective components of the said model structure; determining respective component's positions according to the related Key Fragments; applying the behavioral rules of the virtual model regarding all structure components to determine their new positions according to the said position of the respective components position.
