Skeleton-based Animation

Skeleton-Based Animation is a computational animation method that uses an articulated hierarchical structure of interconnected joints and bones (skeleton) to model and control the deformation of a character's surface geometry, distinguishing it from other animation techniques by its reliance on skeletal kinematics to generate realistic and controllable motion.
