InterDigital R&I’s automated face capture technology, developed in collaboration with the world-renowned Max Planck Institute in Germany, is a production-ready tool that extracts animated face rigs from video, making various types of reworking possible. The digital double technology features a proprietary tool that streamlines 3D facial animation, using photogrammetric capture to create a fully-rigged computer graphics character.

“These technologies represent truly cutting-edge capabilities that will see application in advanced production and eventually extend to a broad range of use cases, including digital avatars, gaming, fashion, and other consumer technologies. The fact that our InterDigital R&I team is at the forefront of these technologies, and the opportunity to highlight them at one of the leading computer graphics conferences, is very exciting,” said Henry Tirri, Chief Technology Officer, InterDigital.
