Human capture and reconstruction technologies have come a long way over the past few years. From volumetric video and motion capture, to real-time rendering and advances in artificial intelligence, the digital landscape is set to be transformed by a world where it is becoming increasing challenging to distinguish the virtual from the real.

Through presentations and demos this event will be exploring the possibilities and implications of ‘capturing humans’ and discussing the future opportunities for business, research and development in this exciting space that is set to transform the way we perceive and interactive with digital people.

Face Lab is an interdisciplinary research group focusing on facial depiction and representation, at the interface of art and science.

Based at Liverpool School of Art and Design, Face Lab specialises in facial identity, population demographics, portraiture and depiction. From skeletal remains, death masks and portraits, they analyse, authenticate and/or depict the faces of key historical figures.
