Facial Caricaturing Robot COOPER Exhibited at EXPO2005 and Its Improvements
نویسندگان
چکیده
We developed the facial caricaturing robot "COOPER" that was exhibited at the Prototype Robot Exhibition of EXPO 2005, Aichi Japan during 11 days from Jun.9 to Jun.19. COOPER watches the face of a person seated at the chair, obtains facial images, and analyzes the images to extract 251 feature points to generate his facial line drawings with deformation. It is noted that the caricature was drawn on the specialized "Shrimp rice cracker" in 4 minutes. To do this we customized the original system PICASSO by coping with the illumination circumstances in EXPO pavilion. This paper illustrates the outline of the COOPER and the details of the image processing in it. And we discusses on the prospects of the future subjects based on more than 352 facial caricatures obtained at EXPO2005.

متن کاملFacial Caricaturing System Controlled by the KANSEI of Gallery Through the Feedback from Eye-Camera
Facial caricaturing process should be investigated and modeled from multiple viewpoints of three relations among the model, the caricaturist and the gallery. Furthermore, some kinds of interactive mechanism should be installed in order especially to implement the relation between the facial caricature generation system PICASSO[ I ] and gallery. In this paper, we propose a dynamic caricaturing s...
متن کاملOn the Detection of Feature Points of 3D Facial Image and Its Application to 3D Facial Caricature
This paper proposes an automated method for extracting 39 feature point$ from 3D facial iniage, and shows that 3D facial caricaturing can be realized by such these smaller number of feature point. and that these 39 feature points could be extmcted automatically. As a result, it was clarified by comparing 3D caricature of 3D PICASSO system with that of a famous caricaturist Mr. Yoshida that 3D f...
متن کاملEffects of Caricaturing in Shape or Color on Familiarity Decisions for Familiar and Unfamiliar Faces
Recent evidence suggests that while reflectance information (including color) may be more diagnostic for familiar face recognition, shape may be more diagnostic for unfamiliar face identity processing. Moreover, event-related potential (ERP) findings suggest an earlier onset for neural processing of facial shape compared to reflectance. In the current study, we aimed to explore specifically the...
