Abstract(in English)	This paper describes a real-time human animation system using a new method of motion capture developed by Hitachi, Ltd. and Fuji Television Network, Inc. Motion capture technology is widely used for making motion data of human animation. In existing methods, however, this technology was difficult to apply to real-time human animation because of data post-processing that was necessary. In our work, we have solved this problem by introducing a rapid facial deformation method for processing the input from a facial expression tracker, and reserved poses blended with real-time input from an articulated input device.
