Abstract:
Embodiments relate to a method for real-time facial animation, and a processing device for real-time facial animation. The method includes providing a dynamic expression model, receiving tracking data corresponding to a facial expression of a user, estimating tracking parameters based on the dynamic expression model and the tracking data, and refining the dynamic expression model based on the tracking data and estimated tracking parameters. The method may further include generating a graphical representation corresponding to the facial expression of the user based on the tracking parameters. Embodiments pertain to a real-time facial animation system.

Claim (Index 15):
A system for real-time facial animation, comprising:\n one or more processors; and one or more storage devices coupled to the one or more processors, and comprising computer readable code executable by the one or more processors to: provide a dynamic expression model that includes a plurality of blendshapes; receive tracking data from a plurality of frames in a temporal sequence, the tracking data corresponding to facial expressions of a user; estimate tracking parameters based on the tracing data from each of the plurality of frames, the tracking parameters corresponding to one or more weight values of the blendshape; and generate a graphical representation of a particular facial expression of the user based on the estimated tracking parameters.
