9. Digital Face Cloning
Full-Day, Sunday, 31 July, 8:30 am - 5:30 pm
Hall B
Level: Intermediate
Digitally cloned actors have recently become a reality. This course describes the distinct technologies used in producing a photo-real digital clone and outlines the significant remaining research challenges in this emerging field.
Prerequisites
Familiarity with computer graphics modeling, animation, and rendering concepts and algorithms. Knowledge of computer graphics mathematics and linear algebra is required to fully understand the theory topics.
Intended Audience
Researchers, technical directors, and programmers in computer graphics, especially those who have an interest in creating realistic rather than stylized human representations.
