Abstract(in English) Since the Human face plays an important role in man-man communication, systems which enable distant users to communicate while viewing each others' face are demanded. If realistic three dimensional Human face images could be created and displayed at real time using an ordinary video camera and computer, smoother communication in Virtual Space Teleconferences could be expected. In this paper, a Real Time Human Face Recognition / Creation System is proposed. After measuring the Human face position and direction with high speed and precision, the parameters are used to move and rotate a three dimensional triangular patch model. By texture mapping the camera input image directly to the Model, realistic face images could be reconstructed. Also, changes in facial feature could be reconstructed by mapping the input images consecutively. These individual methods were examined, and a fundamental experiment combining these methods showed good results.
