FIELD: physics; image processing.
SUBSTANCE: present invention relates to a multifactorial system and method of moving virtual mannequin (10) in a virtual medium. Mannequin (10) is defined by a general position and several degrees of freedom of articulation. The method provides for: endowment of attraction factor (32), acting on several degrees of freedom of articulation of mannequin (10) for moving it to a target; endowment of a displacement factor (21), acting on the general position of mannequin (10) depending on parametres, defining its surrounding medium, for preventing mannequin (10) from colliding with elements of the medium. The method also provides for ergonomic factor (34), acting on several degrees of freedom of articulation of mannequin (10) for automatic adjustment of the position of mannequin (10) when moving to a target.
EFFECT: provision for an optimum level of comfort of positions occupied by the mannequin without need for carrying out further tests.
