Mesh resolution augmentation using 3D skin bank

We present a 3D skin containing the 3D detail information of a high resolution facial mesh. Our 3D skin bank is derived from several scanned faces with resolutions up to several million triangles where even the pores are clearly visible. We present a method to raise the resolution of any given low quality face's geometry by making use of the 3D skin, where the resultant model's final resolution is high enough to be used in computer-generated films. Our method can be deployed to produce numerous high resolution versions of a single low quality face, each bearing different skin characteristics.
