Universal Facial Encoding of Codec Avatars from VR Headsets
Shaojie Bai, Te-Li Wang, Chenghui Li +8
Faithful real-time facial animation is essential for avatar-mediated telepresence in Virtual Reality (VR). To emulate authentic communication, avatar animation needs to be efficien…
Fast Registration of Photorealistic Avatars for VR Facial Animation
Chaitanya Patel, Shaojie Bai, Te-Li Wang +2
Virtual Reality (VR) bares promise of social interactions that can feel more immersive than other media. Key to this is the ability to accurately animate a personalized photorealis…
Drivable Volumetric Avatars using Texel-Aligned Features
Edoardo Remelli, Timur Bagautdinov, Shunsuke Saito +8
Photorealistic telepresence requires both high-fidelity body modeling and faithful driving to enable dynamically synthesized appearance that is indistinguishable from reality. In t…
LiP-Flow: Learning Inference-time Priors for Codec Avatars via Normalizing Flows in Latent Space
Emre Aksan, Shugao Ma, Akin Caliskan +5
Neural face avatars that are trained from multi-view data captured in camera domes can produce photo-realistic 3D reconstructions. However, at inference time, they must be driven b…
Driving-Signal Aware Full-Body Avatars
Timur Bagautdinov, Chenglei Wu, Tomas Simon +6
We present a learning-based method for building driving-signal aware full-body avatars. Our model is a conditional variational autoencoder that can be animated with incomplete driv…
Robust Egocentric Photo-realistic Facial Expression Transfer for Virtual Reality
Amin Jourabloo, Baris Gecer, Fernando De la Torre +7
Social presence, the feeling of being there with a real person, will fuel the next generation of communication systems driven by digital humans in virtual reality (VR). The best 3D…
