Created using computer graphics characters in games and movies will soon be very difficult to distinguish from real people. At least at the computer graphics conference Siggraph 2015 showed superrealistic the skin on the face of a virtual character. All minimal deformation, wrinkles, and even pores it passed with exceptional accuracy.

As reliable capture technology developed by researchers of the Institute of creative technologies in California and Imperial College London. It allows a resolution of up to 10 micrometers recognize more detail on the face of the actor, spots on the skin, stretching and deformation. Using special software, the data obtained are compared with artificial leather an NPC. And the emotions on his face are so realistic that they are difficult to distinguish from the emotions of a living person of flesh and blood.

In the future, the researchers want to develop a model that would accurately convey the behavior of skin of people of different races, ages, sex, to refuse the services of live actors.
