ABSTRACT

The research on facial animation has grown very fast and become more realistic in term of 3D facial data since the laser scan and advance 3D tools can support creating complex facial model. However, that approaches still lacking in term of facial expression based on emotional condition. Facial skin color is one parameter that is contributing on augmenting the realism of facial expression, because it's closely related to the emotion which happens inside the human. This paper provides a new technique for facial animation to change the colour of facial skin based on linear interpolation.
