There is an open-source graphics rendering engine called OGRE 3D available from www.ogre3d.org. One of the demos is called "facial animation demo". For this project I would like someone to take this facial animation demo and convert it into an activex control capable of running in a VB6 application. The facial animation demo is available for download at [url removed, login to view] Requirements: -The activex control must start up without asking the user for graphics rendering settings. I would like it to default to directx. -It must be able to automatically resize to whatever the host app sets the activex control width and height to be -The framerate, ogre logo, and animation control currently visible in the demo should be removed. The head should take up the entire activex window. -The activex control should have a property called "FaceExpression" that will accept string values of "ANGRY", "HAPPY", "SAD", "SURPRISED", "NORMAL", "SNOOZE" and these should map in some unique way to the existing controls present in the demo app. -The activex control should have an event called MouthViseme that accepts 4 integers caled CurrentViseme, Duration, Hints, NextViseme. For this demo I believe only using currentvisime and duration would be enough to make the mouth move realistically enough. The host app will generate SAPI5 data and pass this data using the MouthViseme method whenever the mouth shape should change. Your job is to map this SAPI5 data to the existing mouth controls present in the demo in real time. CurrentViseme is a integer between 0 and 21. More info here [url removed, login to view] and duration is the duration in milliseconds the mouth shape should last. -Good comments in source code is required -This activex control will easily link up with the software ultra hal assistant ([url removed, login to view]) if done correctly.
