Now, Volker Blanz and Thomas Vetter of the MPI for Biological Cybernetics in Germany have come up with a neat morphable model for 3-D faces. The concept is that the system creates a master face amongst a string of two hundred source faces and then the master face can be morphed accordingly. The system takes single 2D image of someone’s face and then covert the same into a perfect 3-D head model. They even applied the same technique to extrapolate a three-dimensional head model of DaVinci’s Mona Lisa and found that she was really beautiful.
