Abstract:
A graphics processing system and method reduce and/or eliminate artifacts during animation by modifying skinning weights used for animating three-dimensionally imaged, compound objects having at least a first object and a second object. The graphics processing system and method identifies a first vertex of a first mesh of a first object and determines that it corresponds to a second vertex from a second mesh of a second object. The graphics processing system determines skinning weights of the second vertex and generates modified skinning weights. The graphics processing system can then animate the second object in some embodiments using the modified skinning weights.

Claim (Index 16):
A system, comprising:\n one or more processors; and one or more computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to: identify a first overlying mesh of a first overlying object; identify a second overlying mesh of a second overlying object; identify a first vertex from the first overlying mesh; determine a suppression level associated with the first vertex, wherein the suppression level corresponds to a magnitude by which a volume of the first overlying object is to be reduced at the first vertex when the second overlying object overlies the first overlying object; and encode a data channel associated with the first vertex with the suppression level.
