Reconstruct and control a face out of pictures

At the moment a lot in doing research for the manipulation and simulation of faces and their facial expressions. Just recently a method was presented by the Max Planck Institute, the Gesichtsausdruecke a person in a video by another in real time www.slashcam.de/news/single/In-den-Mund-gelegt--Live-Video manipulation-of-Ge-12472.html ("remote control"), then the method of Disney Research for www.slashcam.de/news/single/Mehrere-Takes-zu-einer-perfekten-Aufnahme-syntheti -12571.html (Synthesis of a facial performance from multiple takes) and now one of the University of Washington developed (along with Samsung, Google and Intel) algorithm, which allows only reconstruct a face from photos as a 3D model and then this " animate "leaves. The latter through a video recording of aother person whose facial expression is then mapped exactly to the reconstructed face. So this may be about, as in the example video, using the recording of a speech by George Bush apparently by example. Schwarzenegger or Tom Hanks or Ian McKellen are held - lip-sync and including the special mannerisms of the prototype. All that is needed to control a face so, are more pictures and a video of the face "puppeteer" and pictures of the face of the "doll" - the quality of the resulting footage increases with the number and quality of data available pictures. The expression of a face can be copied only through pictures to another. The results may seem a bit strange - if the characteristic of a person Mine game of another person is virtually mirrored.Using this method it would be even easier than before been possible to bring about late actor or related to life or to replace a face in a movie together mimicry by another. The aim of the research is to enable any apparent interaction with celebrities who feel "real", that's why (and for similar applications) and leading technology companies to research are probably involved. But of course is also targeted falsifying photographs and statements of a person so that in future always easier, the more sophisticated the algorithm works. The method provides no extraordinary demands on computing power: the tests were carried out with an Intel i7-4770 with 3.40GHz.
