  • Patent number: 11620779
    Abstract: Described herein are methods and systems for remote visualization of real-time three-dimensional (3D) facial animation with synchronized voice. A sensor captures frames of a face of a person, each frame comprising color images of the face, depth maps of the face, voice data associated with the person, and a timestamp. The sensor generates a 3D face model of the person using the depth maps. A computing device receives the frames of the face and the 3D face model. The computing device preprocesses the 3D face model. For each frame, the computing device: detects facial landmarks using the color images; matches the 3D face model to the depth maps using non-rigid registration; updates a texture on a front part of the 3D face model using the color images; synchronizes the 3D face model with a segment of the voice data using the timestamp; and transmits the synchronized 3D face model and voice data to a remote device.
