The basic thrust of the research is developing a mapping between emotional state and gaze behaviors in order to produce a procedural model of gaze which can be used to display the emotional state of animated characters in dynamic environments. – Brent Lance

We recently began a move of the website to our fabulous new server. Unfortunately a member of the team (Wes) forgot to backup all of the previous posts of the website. Luckily we aren’t very avid bloggers and there were only 5 previous posts. As time progresses you will see the Wubble World website return to its full glory.

Thanks for visiting!
