Abstract

This article proposes a new dual quaternion based approach for motion interpolation . The highlight is that dual quaternions act in the usual way on points, even if the Study condition is not fulfilled. This induces a fibration of kinematic image space into straight lines that describe the same rigid body displacement. This allows to use standard interpolation schemes for (piecewise) rational curves in a linear space rather than on the curved Study quadric.
