A character animation system translates high-level commands from an external application into motions and deformations of a character model. The character animations are (1) composed in real-time from a sequence of basic actions and expressions, (2) calculated based on the desired end position and orientation of a hand or other body part, or (3) are generated randomly to simulate natural fidgets of the human body. In each case, the character animation system assures (1) that each action blends naturally with the succeeding action, (2) that collisions between body parts are avoided, and (3) that facial expressions are coordinated in parallel with the actions.

A method for medical skills training is provided that includes simulating a current condition of at least one simulated patient wherein the current condition comprises dynamic physiology, appearance, and behavior of the patient using one or more physiology models; outputting the simulated patient in the current condition on a visual display; receiving input from one or more users, wherein the input represents one or more medical interactions to be virtually applied to the simulated patient; processing the inputs using the physiology model in conjunction with one or more physiological variables that change over time based on the physiology model, in response to corresponding deterioration clocks and the inputs; and outputting one or more changes to the current condition of the simulated patient by applying different animations to the simulated patient based on the processed inputs. As system and computer readable media for medical skills training are also provided.
