Overview
The realism comes from the long and fruitful interaction between science and the cinema that can be traced back to the pioneering work more than a century ago of the photographer Eadweard Muybridge (the eccentric spelling of his first name was a deliberate homage to Anglo-Saxon style). More-advanced tetrapods, the amniotes (which include today's reptiles, birds and mammals), adopted a more efficient style of locomotion in which the body is held clear of the ground, a much more effective way of getting around on land than salamander-like slithering. In this study, the researchers used the same technique - in this case, high-resolution X-ray cinematography of modern animals including caimans, iguanas and salamanders - as a basis for overlaying images of skeletal elements in the digital domain, thereby constraining the movements of the digital models of Orobates to the realms of the possible.
