Title:
- Simplified facial capture with head mounted cameras
Presenter(s)/Author(s):
Abstract:
We present a unified pipeline for high-resolution facial capture that replaces the initial traditional seated capture with a head-mounted camera setup. At its core, our approach relies on improving roughly personalized blendshapes by fitting handle vertices, in a Laplacian framework, to depth and image data. Thus, refining the geometry. This pipeline has been used in production to generate high quality animation to train our proprietary market-based solution, leading to large time and cost savings.
