CMU, Disney Build Face Models That Give Animators Control of Expressions
August 09, 2011. Flashing a wink and a smirk might be second nature for some people, but computer animators can be hard-pressed to depict such an expression realistically. Now scientists at Disney Research, Pittsburgh, and Carnegie Mellon University’s Robotics Institute have created computerized models derived from actors’ faces that reflect a full range of natural expressions while also giving animators the ability to manipulate facial poses.

The Robotics Institute is part of the School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University.
