FACE RELIGHTING OF AVATARS WITH HIGH-QUALITY SCAN AND MOBILE CAPTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240338893 titled 'FACE RELIGHTING OF AVATARS WITH HIGH-QUALITY SCAN AND MOBILE CAPTURE

The abstract of the patent application describes a system that utilizes a mobile device to capture a subject and multiple cameras to provide a multi-view scan of the subject under uniform illumination. The system then processes the mobile capture and multi-view scan to generate a relightable avatar of the subject.

  • Mobile device used to capture subject
  • Multiple cameras provide multi-view scan under uniform illumination
  • Pipeline processes data to generate relightable avatar
  • Mobile capture includes video captured while subject is moved relative to a light source

Potential Applications: - Virtual reality applications - Gaming industry for creating customizable avatars - Fashion industry for virtual fitting rooms

Problems Solved: - Enhances the quality of avatars generated from scans - Provides a more realistic representation of the subject - Allows for customization and manipulation of lighting in avatars

Benefits: - Improved user experience in virtual environments - Increased realism in virtual representations - Enhanced customization options for avatars

Commercial Applications: Title: "Revolutionizing Avatar Creation with Relightable Technology" This technology can be used in industries such as virtual reality, gaming, and fashion to create highly realistic and customizable avatars for various applications. The market implications include improved user engagement and enhanced personalization options for consumers.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the system ensure accurate capture and processing of the subject's features? 2. What are the potential limitations of using a mobile device for capturing the subject in this system?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in mobile capture technology, multi-view scanning techniques, and avatar generation algorithms to enhance the capabilities of the system.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system of the subject technology includes a mobile device operable to generate a mobile capture of a subject and multiple cameras to provide a multi-view scan of the subject under a uniform illumination. the system further includes a pipeline to perform several processes using the mobile capture and the multi-view scan to generate a relightable avatar. the mobile capture includes a video captured while the subject is moved relative to a light source.
