One of the central issues in computer animation today is the specification of complex motion control. One technique used for object and camera motion is to create smooth paths through space using splines. However, computer animation involves paths through space and time, the fourth dimension. This paper describes a natural, and apparently, new form of spline for computer animation: the four dimensional spline.
