Lecture 18: Intro to Animation (61)

Can we use barycentric interpolation or something quite similar to it to blend these vertexes, especially when we go to map the actual texture and "skin" ?

In the next slides there is a sort of more realistic interpolation that might achieve what you're going for - since we aren't interpolating to get values inside the triangle "bone" itself, barycentric interpolation might not be as useful here.

I think this is really interesting. I always assumed that these were issues that animators would have to go over and clean up. I wonder how well this works when objects are more complicated (has a intricate bump map, for example). I could see it potentially causing strange movements on the bump map as the bones move.
