Abstract

A system and method is provided that facilitates visualization and control of a simulation of walking in a manufacturing, work, or other human activity environment. The system may include at least one processor, at least one input device, a data store including anthropometric data, and a display device. The input device may be used to receive first motion inputs. The processor may be configured to determine positions for foot falls on a simulated support surface that the feet of a human figure based on the anthropometric data will step on when being animated to walk on the support surface along a path determined dynamically in real-time responsive to the first motion inputs. Based on the determined positions for the foot falls, they processor may generate a visual animation through the display device of the human figure walking along the path in real time with the feet of the human figure being placed on the determined positions for the foot falls.
