Watch Artificial Intelligence Create a 3D Model of a Person—from Just a Few Seconds of Video

Watch artificial intelligence create a 3D model of a person—from just a few seconds of video

The researchers tested the method with a variety of body shapes, clothing, and backgrounds and found that it had an average accuracy within 5 millimeters, they will report in June at the Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition conference in Salt Lake City. The system can also reproduce the folding and wrinkles of fabric, but it struggles with skirts and long hair. With a model of you, the researchers can change your weight, clothing, and pose—and even make you perform a perfect pirouette.

No practice necessary.
