I was just wonding what was diffance between Head tracking and face tracking because I was reading about Sony adding Face tracking and Head tracking to the PlayStation 3 SDK,
so I was wonding what can the Face tracking be used for in games , like making you into a robot or something.
I'm not sure "Head tracking" and "Face tracking" are well defined. Sometimes it means "head tracking" = "3D tracking", and "face tracking" = "2D tracking", sometimes the opposite !
Amazing, I tried both examples, the Transformer mask, and the monster creature on your head. Will there be a work on combining your software to work together with a videogame ? Like Armed Assault or Call of Duty games, where you can look around in the game when you move your head ? Or is it impossible to do that without some hardware ? I am really impresed of the result, just software installed and any webcam ? Really amazing.
I think that for the moment you would need harware for the very fast motion you expect to have in videogames, but the technogoly goes fast so who knows ?
I downloaded something like monster on my head and it works, it follows my head.. Isn't there something else than this creature on my head ? Like the one you show here ? I don't like that creature with 6 legs on my head, it looks funny lol. Is that all what I can download ? Beside, the site is in foreign language, I don't understand anything.
It is live interaction. The video is what I see on my computer. The freeze at the beginning is just me stopping the live video to put the 3D model on my face.
Downloaded / Installed software, and im quite dissapointed. I'm not sure if it's due to my lack of insight to the product or if the product doesn't function without some other part, but I was able to get into the program and see myself, but had only one option while in program "esc" to quit. I even clicked on every part of my screen to insure i wasn't missing something.
i have the same problem, when i go on futuroscope it just shows up a screen of me on the webcam and all that i can do is press esc to get out of it and i clicked everywhere on the screen andd nothing happened
Since today, you can go the html link at the right of the video, click on "2009", and click on "Télécharger" and you'll be able to download this face tracking to test it (with a different 3D content).
For the moment this is sold to companies, not to the mass market. For instance, it's been used during the pre-boarding queue of the Dark Night Coaster in some Six Flags.
They turn into accomplices of the Joker, with the masks you see during the bank robbery at the beginning of the movie. You cannot download it for the moment.
No I don't know any video. But search for "Total Immersion Jumbotron", you will see a quick and rough example of such tracking on the spectators of a basket ball match.
OMG... I'm a programmer myself and this is simply totally unbelievable!!! Excellent work! I'm so impressed! I tried making a simple red dot tracking app to be able to use a desk as a multi-touch interface just with a 1mp webcam... and that was already really hard.
The layman's explanation : The only data the algorithm is sure of, is the data of the first frame. The further away you go from this position, the more challenging it is. And since this is a demo of the tracking technology, there is no filter and/or use of another method to circumvent this.
i think the reason why it had a problem when he looked to the side is because the software probably only learned his face from the front in this demo.. since he didn't turn his head while initializing, it probably just didn't get a chance to learn the shape of his head from the side... just my guess....
The algorithm uses a standard face and a standard skull model. The difference between them and the reality is seen mostly on the back of the hat, because the computer tries to make the less mistakes on the face first.
great demonstration. ive just been looking into augmented reality lately and i was wondering how face tracking was done on 3d objects, but it makes sense now, a 2d snapshot of 1 angle of the object will work like the usual 2d pattern. Thanx for posting this.
It's all realtime, even if you only have my word to prove it. The first image is a freezed image I use to create a reference, then all is realtime. Check the other video I link to for a proof of that.
Well, because this is a very touchy topic for my company, I cannot give you the details, but our technology has a feature that Icarus and other match movers do not hav. This feature is very important for face tracking in particular. The drawback of this specific feature is low compared to the advantage - the results speak for themselves. Yes, this comment is very frustrating, but we make money, not art :)
i'v seen this on webcams before but not in a 3d sense. But one request :p can you make someone more realistic attach to your face, like make the beak more natural? cos atm it feels like im being held up in a bank robbery ;)
thats cool. So is this real time match moving? Would someone have to go through the pain of using a program like Match mover to do this? Let me tell you, match mover can be a real pain in the ass w/o enough points on the footage.
This can be described as real time match moving, yes indeed. But, on thee other hand, Match mover aim at an accuracy of another level than the one which is enough to have fun with, IMO.
Amazing. This is the perfect toy. With this type of technology there are no limits for creativity. And the best of all, we get faster results. Merci beaucoup pour votre video. A tout a l'heure.

maybe the movement of that can be averaged out somehow. A slight slower reacting track doesn't stand out as much as a jittering one.
