Meet Emily - Image Metrics Tech Demo (HQ)

Yes you read correctly, TECH demo. She IS the demo. Until the 1:30 mark when they revert back to the source (the real actress), her entire face is being simulated by the technology. Peace out uncanny valley! ps. Thanks to perrygood&true for the HD source material for this upload. ps2. Fyi, Times Online broke the coverage on this particular before any other site. Give them some clicks.

The only detail they need to work on IMO, is the eye movement. It seems a little unnatural.	iamnicompoop
@InfernalGaming What you mean, until you hear her voice? That's a recorded voice!	iamnicompoop
actually here's the trick.. check out audofier (dot) com to rip this song from youtube.	pjtwari
@Aofex I dunno, If I didn't know she was computer generated I would think that that was a real person. Until you hear the voice then you notice somthing isn't right.	InfernalGaming
Is this the same technology as the new upcoming Ultramarines movie?	prayerofthemantis
@MrSwishaTwista210 Also GTAIV,Red Dead Redemption,Assassins Creed 2,God of War 3,Army of Two,Gears of War,Unreal Tournament and alot of other projects...	AlisherUA
;.-)))) wow superb ! hahaha coool ;-)))	santasa99
Well, to advance in this kind of technology, you have to pass through the uncanny valley first. Looks good, but the brain immediately tells there is something odd.	Aofex
@xiroko50 kai	stryfe1000
@stryfe1000 look at the date its 9 months arfter the tech demonstration came out at the only progress they have made is more defined skin texture and teeth compinsation. dont get me wrong it looks perfect now. i just had to get the past off my chest	xiroko50
@stryfe1000 nope, its not BUBUBUBULLSHIT. i really did know it wasnt real.	skemeB34
@xiroko50 i know it was in 2007 but they keep improving it and this is how far theyve come now	stryfe1000
@stryfe1000 ...they had this technology in 2007 its not a breakthrough dude.. and furthermore its just an animation OF A FACE not hair or shirt or environment.. if basically just a green screen on her face	xiroko50
@skemeB34 BUBUBUBBULLSHIT	stryfe1000
@xiroko50 no one cares that your unimpressed, this is definately a break through	stryfe1000
ENTER THE MATRIX - HOW LONG TIL our real INCEPTION -- MOORES LAW = OUR LIFETIME its massivley fascinating that just around the corner in our lifetime there will be ai and virtual reality -- on teh same level as the matrix films --- just looking around the corner :D	money19984
Some of the creators must do some dirty stuff to her when no ones there.shudders	qazwsxedc24631
am i the only one unimpressed? im sure the guys who made this to forever and don't get me wrong its great! but.. its just the face... not the body or the background or anthing :(	xiroko50
This is amazing.	DarkHarpuia
The mouth is still fucked.	sliver321123
Only the face is modiffied	DJordydj
@batpal Yes.	Vire70
@JrWofulrabbit me too(apart from the boyfriend argument lol)	skemeB34
@TB4000 i knew she wasnt real. and no one "gave it away either" im an artist and study faces A LOT so to me i notice tiny little things that arent quite right. the animation is the biggest give away. still, its incredibly realistic and took me a few seconds to realise it was cgi...and even then i wasnt quite sure.	skemeB34
@HEADSHOTASSASIN im sorry man but i REALLY knew this wasnt real. it is scarily realistic though.	skemeB34
