SFU/FIT Colaborative Design Project
Using virtual tools, this was an interdisciplinary, cross-institutional effort in collaborative design, distance learning and virtual performance culminating in a co-designed fashion show and performance.

faceToolKit - A 3D Facial ToolKit
A system for creating, animating and communicating with 3D faces types. This dev toolkit is based on a hierarchical parametric approach allowing for an additive realtime language of expressions, emotions and lip-sync sequences..

GenFace - Exploring FaceSpace with Genetic Algorithms
genFace uses a genetic algorithm technique to search through a large multi-dimensional space of correlated faces -- making it possible to traverse a path from any face to any other face, morphing through locally similar faces along that path.

iFACE - Comprehensive Envir for Interactive Face Anim
Introducing the concept of Face Multimedia Object (FMO), iFACE develops an integrated framework for working with FMO by defining and implementing the necessary functionality (3D and 2D) and exposing proper interfaces to a variety of application types (Web clients, GUI programs, and interactive users).

MusicFace
Music-driven Emotionally Expressive Face (MusicFace) creates 'facial choreography' driven by musical input. Structural and emotion data are extracted from the music via a fuzzy rule based system and remapped to 'equivelents' in face space.

Virtual CoLab Project
Researching how mathematicians (& scientists) using 3D v-environments can collaborate with each other using 3D with rich media objects (browsers, video, 3D models, animation), avatar embodiments and spatial user interface constructs.

A Social Metaphor-based Virtual Communities (voiceAvatar)
The goal of this project is to deliver a rich experience of human socialization and telepresence via a voice-enabled web3D avatar community by emulating natural socal metaphors.

Virutal Beluga Project - Vancouver Aquarium
An interactive beluga whale pod simulation for the Vancouver Aquarium which uses realistic 3D graphics and an artificial intelligent system. It was informed by research data from the live belugas.
