Abstract

Techniques for animatronic design are provided. A plurality of simulated meshes is generated using a physics simulation model, where the plurality of simulated meshes corresponds to a plurality of actuator configurations for an animatronic mechanical design. A machine learning model is trained based on the plurality of simulated meshes and the plurality of actuator configurations. A plurality of predicted meshes is generated for the animatronic mechanical design, using the machine learning model, based on a second plurality of actuator configurations. Virtual animation of the animatronic mechanical design is facilitated based on the plurality of predicted meshes.
