Method and system of rendering a 3D image for automated facial morphing

A computerized method for rendering a three-dimensional (3D) digital image for automated facial morphing comprising:

• scanning of a user's face with a digital camera to obtain a set of digital images of the user's face;
• determining that the user's face is in a compliant state;
• implementing an analysis of the set of digital images and implementing a set of pre-rendering steps by:
• wherein each digital image comprises a depth data, a red/green/blue (RGB) data, and a facemask data,
• implementing an iterative closest path (ICP) algorithm that correlates the set of digital images together by stitching together a cloud of points of the facemask data of each digital image and outputs a set of transformation matrices,
• implementing a truncated signed distance function (TSDF) algorithm on the set of the transformation matrices, wherein the TSDF algorithm represents each point of the transformation matrices in a regularized voxel grid and outputs a set of voxel representations as a one-dimension (1-D) array of voxels,
• implementing a marching cubes algorithm that obtains each voxel representation of the 1-D array of voxels and creates a three-dimensional (3D) mesh out of the per-voxel values provided by the TSDF and outputs a mesh representation, wherein the mesh representation comprises a set of triangles and vertices,
• implementing a cleaning algorithm that obtains the mesh representations and cleans a floating vertices and triangles and outputs a mesh, wherein the mesh comprises a set of scattered points with a normal per point,
• implementing a Poisson algorithm on the mesh output and fills in any holes of the mesh, wherein the Poisson algorithm outputs a reconstructed mesh,
• implementing a texture mapping algorithm that outputs a mask representation, wherein the mask representation illustrates each piece of the digital image with texture values and label values, and
• implementing an image stitching algorithm that stitches the digital images with different lighting values to remove any seams;
• and outputs a single digital image with consistent lighting;
• and
• rendering a 3D digital image of the user's face from the single digital image with consistent lighting,
• wherein the compliant state comprises that a central axis of the user's face is perpendicular to a horizonal plane of the digital camera.
