New Age Graphics Moving Closer to Photorealism

摘要

Tucked in a corner of a large, swanky office, a group of animators form a quiet huddle, glued to a large monitor, where an actress is portraying a series of human emotions ranging from laughter, confusion, relief, stress and depression. On another screen, you find a computer generated image trying to mimic those emotions. This is another test of the kind of photorealism that the latest graphics equipment in studios can achieve. The virtual characters seem to completely embody the personality of their real life counterparts.
