Abstract

A transmitter-receiver of three dimensional skeleton motions in which motion data of a skeleton structure in three-dimensional computer graphics (CG) is transmitted from a transmitting end to a receiving end using first and second formats. In the first format, initial information and time series data is interpreted to decide the posture of the skeleton structure according to kinematics, and in the second format, the initial information and data in which disassembled element data is accompanied by the connection methods thereto is interpreted to decide the posture of the skeleton structure according to kinematics.
