Abstract
Methods, devices, media, and other embodiments are described for a state-space system for pseudorandom animation. In one embodiment animation elements within a computer model are identified, and for each animation element motion patterns and speed harmonics are identified. A set of motion data values comprising a state-space description of the motion patterns and the speed harmonics are generated, and a probability assigned to each value of the set of motion data values for the state-space description. The probability can then be used to select and update a particular motion used in an animation generated from the computer model.
