Abstract
We present a comparative study of two gesture speci cation languages. Our aim is to derive requirements for a new, optimal speci - cation language that can be used to extend the emerging BML standard. We compare MURML, which has been designed to specify coverbal gestures, and a language we call LV, originally designed to describe French Sign Language utterances. As a rst step toward a new gesture speci cation language we created EMBRScript, a low-level animation language capable of describing multi-channel animations, that can be used as a foundation for future BML extensions.
