1. The synthesis of motion capture data Author : Tomáš Sako Supervisor : RNDr. Stanislav Stanek

2. The submission of diploma thesis investigate the methods of the synthesis of motion capture data Result = semi-interactive system : Input : captured motion data Output : its composition Product : mostly realistic motion 2

3. Benefit the creation of semi-interactive system for motion synthesis the implementation of Registration curves algorithm the comparison of simple and dual quaternions efficiency 3
