The 3-D Morphable Face Model


The future of animation? The Morphable Face Model shows how movie stars can be appear in films they never worked on, or even star in new films after they die! One person quipped that they should have delayed the release of The Polar Express until this program became available. Push play or go to YouTube. -via J-Walk Blog

It´s not as spectacular than this, but you must to try the Facegen Modeller ( http://www.facegen.com/modeller.htm ).

Three photos, let the computer calculating one or two hours without touching him (Tried with a 3700+ AMD. In slowers computers probably you must to wait more and in faster computers less) and... your face in 3D, xportable to 3d Studio, Maya etc. And this is morphable too.

WOW, imagine what it could be used for in the police and military, and for helping to rebuild facial features due to scarring or major surgery, bring in an old picture of yourself and they can make a mask of how you used to look before surgery or accident... wow....

This was by far the most impressive 3d-facial visualization demo I've seen yet!

I am floored.
