Abstract

We present a novel mechanism that allows real and virtual humans to dynamically exchange the control of their embodiment in virtual environments. Such a mechanism raises two important issues: the possibility of dynamic embodiment exchanges between real humans and virtual humans and the continuity of actions of the team members after an exchange. To address these issues we introduce a new entity, the Perceptive Puppet that abstracts real and virtual humans into one common entity containing its own knowledge.
