The method tracks 3D locations of face feature points in real time by adopting a single video camera, and parameterizes head poses and facial expressions according to the 3D locations, finally may map these parameters into an avatar to drive face animation of an animation character. The present invention may achieve a real time speed by merely adopting a usual video camera of the user instead of an advanced acquisition equipment; the present invention may process all kinds of wide-angle rotations, translation and exaggerated expressions of faces accurately; the present invention may also work under different illumination and background environments, which include indoor and sunny outdoor. | 2015-02-05 |
| 20150035826 | Compression Of A Three-Dimensional Modeled Object - It is proposed a computer-implemented method for compressing a three-dimensional modeled object. The method comprises: providing a mesh of the three-dimensional modeled object; parameterizing (u,v) the mesh in a two-dimensional plane, the parameterization of the mesh resulting in a set of vertices having two-dimensional coordinates; providing a grid on the two-dimensional plane; and modifying the two-dimensional coordinates of each vertex by assigning one vertex to one intersection of the grid. Such compression method is lossless, completely reversible, suitable to efficiently reduce the storage size of a CAD file. | 2015-02-05 |
