摘要: Techniques are disclosed for performing avatar-based video encoding. In some embodiments, a video recording of an individual may be encoded utilizing an avatar that is driven by the facial expression(s) of the individual. In some such cases, the resultant avatar animation may accurately mimic facial expression(s) of the recorded individual. Some embodiments can be used, for example, in video sharing via social media and networking websites. Some embodiments can be used, for example, in video-based communications (e.g., peer-to-peer video calls; videoconferencing). In some instances, use to the disclosed techniques may help to reduce communications bandwidth use, preserve the individual's anonymity, and/or provide enhanced entertainment value (e.g., amusement) for the individual, for example.

摘要: A video communication system that replaces actual live images of the participating users with animated avatars. A method may include initiating communication between a first user device and a remote user device; receiving selection of a new avatar to represent a user of the first user device; identifying a new avatar file for the new avatar in an avatar database associated with the first user device; determining that the new avatar file is not present in a remote avatar database associated with the remote user device; and transmitting the new avatar file to the remote avatar database in response to determining that the new avatar file is not present in the remote avatar database.

摘要: Generally, this disclosure provides methods and systems for dynamic control of display brightness in different regions of the display based on window configuration and content. The method may include determining regions of interest to a user on the display; adjusting the display brightness in the regions of interest to a first level of brightness; and adjusting the display brightness in regions outside of the regions of interest to a second level of brightness, such that the second level of brightness is lower than the first level of brightness. The dynamic adjustment of display brightness in different regions of the display may reduce power consumption by the display.

摘要: Avatars are animated using predetermined avatar images that are selected based on facial features of a user extracted from video of the user. A user's facial features are tracked in a live video, facial feature parameters are determined from the tracked features, and avatar images are selected based on the facial feature parameters. The selected images are then displayed are sent to another device for display. Selecting and displaying different avatar images as a user's facial movements change animates the avatar. An avatar image can be selected from a series of avatar images representing a particular facial movement, such as blinking. An avatar image can also be generated from multiple avatar feature images selected from multiple avatar feature image series associated with different regions of a user's face (eyes, mouth, nose, eyebrows), which allows different regions of the avatar to be animated independently.

摘要: In some embodiments, facial recognition can be used to aid in the association of human gestural commands with particular users and particular computing devices associated with those users. This can be used for example to control television viewing in one embodiment and to enable the users to provide gestural commands to have information about the television program from the television sent to their associated computing devices. In addition, the facial recognition may assist in distinguishing commands from one user from those of another user, avoiding the need to require that the users remain within fixed positions associated with each user.
