    High School Inverse Kinematics: Understanding the Math Behind Building Virtual Arms and Legs

    Well, kind of. I'm not exactly building a "robot arm", I'm building [in-game] character/humanoid arms/legs. I've just looked up on Grobner bases, I can't really find any "implementation" of it specifically, but I will try to dive deeper into it. However, I have found something from...

    High School Inverse Kinematics: Understanding the Math Behind Building Virtual Arms and Legs

    But if you want a "brute force" approach, then read on. First, you need to understand how to determine the distance between two points. The formula you use depends on what KIND of coordinate system you choose to use. Its a choice. Let's see, if you're 13 you're maybe in 7th Grade? So you haven't...

    High School Inverse Kinematics: Understanding the Math Behind Building Virtual Arms and Legs

    I don't know if I can study ahead of my school's math curriculum due to it being within a classroom environment. However, I can do my own independent study within places like KhanAcademy, in books, etc.

    High School Inverse Kinematics: Understanding the Math Behind Building Virtual Arms and Legs

    Sorry for the really, really late reply. I've been very busy with tests, assessments, and just general life. However, that's all finished so I'm ready to concentrate again! For what math I have done so far, I've done Algebra, haven't really touched trigonometry, however, I've done independent...

    High School Inverse Kinematics: Understanding the Math Behind Building Virtual Arms and Legs

    Hey guys, So, I'm new here. And I'm of 13 years of age. I am a programmer in a platform called "ROBLOX". I wanted to create my own Animator within that platform, using Inverse Kinematics. However, searching through the web, everything is just so complicated to me. I don't seem to understand the...

    Exploring Physics and Math Basics: Common Questions for Beginners

    Hey guys, I recently signed up because I needed some information on some physics/maths questions. So, I may be a complete newbie here. I probably won't understand much, (I'm 13), but I'll try! Wish me good luck guys!
