For most women, the topic of makeup is as important as eating, but it takes hours of effort to complete a set of exquisite makeup using traditional methods. Now, a technology called "omote" can "draw" patterns on the face in minutes, and can change the shape and color of the pattern in real time.
Omote technology actually combines real-time tracking with projection mapping technology. It first uses three-dimensional laser scanning to create an accurate facial model. The model is equipped with detailed contour parameters, and then adds patterns on this basis. Or graphic animation, and then install motion trackers on key points on the face to achieve real-time tracking and projection of images at corresponding positions on the face to achieve a "makeup" effect.
According to the creator of omote, Nobumichi Asai, a CGI expert who once worked for Microsoft Kinect, this technology is inspired by Japanese Noh masks. Based on this technology, the human face is treated as a special piece of The display screen can display pictures or animations at will. Although this technology has just started, it is not yet clear how many motion systems can be processed, and the motion tracking range is also very small. However, compared with the traditional makeup industry that emphasizes manual operations, this concept not only saves time, but also reduces the damage to the skin. Relatively small. According to reports, this technology may be first applied to stage plays.
