Skeletal Animation Using Assimp - Part 1/5 // OpenGL Tutorial #24
In this video we begin a mini series on implementing Skeletal Animation in OpenGL using Assimp. We will review the basic concepts and implement a simple utility to parse the data structures of Assimp in order to access the relevant parts for Skeletal Animation. In future videos we will develop this utility further and incorporate its logic into our OpenGL application.
