Abstract

We propose a smart mirror system to display an augmented 3D representation of the user with makeup features. In this approach the user is able to view the possible outcomes of different makeup applications in the smart mirror without affecting the real face appearance in the process. The system incorporates 3D face construction, IR based face tracking and OpenGL material extensive rendering approach to deliver the augmented made-up face. We argue that by viewing the augmented grooming features the users will be able to flexibly decide the makeup products of their choice.
