ROBOT
Presented as a technology preview at SIGGRAPH 2005, Face Robot provides
artists with the tools to produce lifelike facial animation and digital acting with
emotion and depth.

If you take a look at the picture to the left, you will quite certainly think that
this is a very beautiful face. But what makes you be so sure about that? Finding answers
to why we regard one face as being more beautiful than another is actually not as easy as
it seems.

Talking Head
Animation of a talking face affords interactive agents the opportunity to reproduce
the functions and behaviors of natural face-to-face conversation. It also offers a
methodological tool for developing and testing psycholinguistic theories of those
functions and behaviors.
- Skulls
gain virtual faces
When police find a skull and want to know what its owner looked like, they
generally use artists who reconstruct the face by building up layers of clay over the
skull.
- inovani
inovani delivers an animation engine: a software only, state of the art rendering
of talking expressive characters. These characters are programmed to present verbal
(spoken) content with close to natural facial motions, and they include lifelike human
head models, suitably modeled cartoon heads, talking heads or avatars.
- Responsive
Face
The eventual goal of this research is to give computer/human interfaces the ability
to represent the subtleties we take for granted in face to face communication, so that
they can function as agents for an emotional point of view.
