Abstract
A method and systems for creating a three-dimensional wireframe mesh that represents characteristics of a model of an object moving along a curve in a three-dimensional coordinate system. A processor determines a direction of the object's motion from a starting location to an ending location. The processor performs vector operations to draw pairs of vectors from a common, initial base point. The tips of each pair of vectors identify two corresponding points of the mesh, and the vector operations are functions of the starting location, of the second location, and of the object's direction of motion. The processor adjusts characteristics of the mesh and determines, as a function of the adjusted mesh, a characteristic of the animated object at the ending location, such as its orientation, color, texture, reflectance, size, font, or animation speed.
