Making your skin glow with latest technology
Utilizing computer graphics and facial projection and tracking innovation, Nobumichi Asai creates a new art kind of facial tattoos, where digital makeup transfers a human face into a masterpiece of computer graphics. Makeup has the transformative capability to make a face beautiful, appealing, hot, clownish or weird. As the art of makeup moves into the digital age, it won’t be long prior to people can utilize 3D facial projection technology to paint confront with anything from tiger stripes and tough snakeskin, to taking off waterfalls and erupting bouquets of flower
The speculative art of facial forecast by Japanese artist and researcher Nobumichi Asai turns the human face into a canvas of the creativity. The curves and functions of the face end up being an alluring landscape for vivid, kaleidoscopic images. In Japan and London, Asai and his team from WOW worked with Intel to manifest how Asai s artistry, combined with a lot of computer processing power, could press the limits of facial projection. The most intriguing feature of innovation is that it makes the impossible possible, said Asai. When I start developing, I initially feel something that thrills me. Asai utilizes the human face similar to a filmmaker uses the cinema. By tracking the precise contours of a model's nose, mouth, eye sockets, chin and face shape, Asai and his group use the models face as a canvas for what is essentially extremely elaborate animated makeup.
Shapes of the Face:
By understanding the mathematical shapes of the face, Asai, who can map his digital vivids so they fit perfection onto facial features. A face can become a tribal cloak, a waterfall of tears, a collage of stone any type of programmable digital skin. Because the start of time, humans have actually been decorating their faces, enhancing their appeal utilizing art, colors and textures, stated Paul Tapp, Director of Technology for Intel Marketing. Asia's’ background in science pushes his curiosity for how innovation can bring his concepts to life. He uses sophisticated technology to embellish the face in an unconstrained and unique way. He has complete freedom of expression, using the face as a 3-dimensional canvas which he can adorn at some level of detail which was formerly difficult, Tapp continued. The level of accuracy we can calculate from the tracking algorithms, combined with the responsiveness of the PC to generate the best image immediately, means that we wind up being able job these inert virtual tattoos to the face with a nearly skin-like authenticity, said Tapp. For Asai, integrating technology into art is an ingenious and necessary way to bring nature to life. My preferred thing is the delight and enjoyment people receive from my work, said Asai. It makes me want to create something even better.
