			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="post_image" src="http://blog.conigs.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/3dfacemorph.jpg" alt="3dfacemorph" width="160" height="146" />Take a look at this <a href="http://www.metacafe.com/watch/yt-nice6NYb_WA/3d_morphable_model_face_animation/">3D morphable model face demo</a> by <a href="http://www.mpi-inf.mpg.de/~blanz/">Volker Blantz</a>. The automated matching of Tom Hanks&#8217; face is amazing, but I was even more impressed with the Audrey Hepburn and Mona Lisa sequences.</p>
<p>Apparently, it can sample multiple facial models and extract bone structures, facial expressions, gender, and more. It does seem to approach the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncanny_valley">uncanny valley</a>, and at other times caricature, but overall, this is very impressive. I guess that&#8217;s one step closer to <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0258153/">S1m0ne</a>.</p>
