In this paper, we present a technique for motion: the
problem of adapting an animated motion from one character to another.
Our focus is on adapting the motion of one articulated figure
to another figure with identical structure but different segment
lengths, although we use this as a step when considering less similar
characters. Our method creates adaptations that preserve desirable
qualities of the original motion. We identify specific features
of the motion as constraints that must be maintained. A spacetime
constraints solver computes an adapted motion that re-establishes
these constraints while preserving the frequency characteristics of
the original signal. We demonstrate our approach on motion capture
data.
