This paper introduces a system to realize interactive and personalized erasure animations by using mobile terminals, a shared display terminal, and a database server for a large group of participants. In the system, participants shake their mobile terminals with their hands. Their shaking data are captured by the database server. Then there are immersive and somatosensory erasure animations on the shared display terminal according to the participants’ shaking data in the database server. The system is implemented by a data preprocessing module and an interactive erasure animation module. The former is mainly responsible for the cleaning and semantic standardization of the personalized erasure shape data. The latter realizes the interactive erasure animation, which involves shaking the mobile terminal, visualizations of the erasure animation on the shared display terminal, and dynamic and personalized data editing. The experimental results show that the system can realize various styles of personalized erasure animation and can respond to more than 2000 shaking actions simultaneously and present the corresponding erasure animations on the shared display terminal in real time.
