30 Claims

1. A method of synthesizing facial features of a three-dimensional (3D) facial model, the method comprising:

obtaining a first frame, the first frame including a face;

generating a 3D facial model based on the first frame;

generating a first texture corresponding to the face;

obtaining a second frame, the second frame including a portion of the face, wherein the portion of the face at least partially overlaps the face;

generating a second texture corresponding to the portion of the face; and

combining the first texture with the second texture to generate an enhanced texture, wherein the combining is performed to enhance an appearance of an area of the first texture corresponding to the portion of the face based on the second texture to generate the enhanced texture.
