Abstract
In this paper, a brief survey on knowledge-based animation techniques is given. Then a VideoStream-based Knowledge Representation Model (VSKRM) for Joint Objects in presented which includes the knowledge representation of: Graphic Object, Action and VideoStream. Next a general description of the UI framework of a system is given based on the VSKRM model. Finally, a conclusion is reached.
