Abstract

We report our preliminary experiments for 3D human faces in order to investigate the importance of their structural and textural information concerned with the view angle. A new sensing method was developed for creating highly-accurate 3D images. By this method, we can arbitrarily synthesize new images to compound a person´s structural model and other surface textural information of the person´s face. We will show the importance of structural and textual information concerned with the view angle and the validity of the compound method, in investigating the trade-off between quality and efficient image generation
