Multiview Face Content Creation

New views of a 2D image are generated by identifying an object class within the image, such as through a face detector. The face is then fitted to a model face by means of an AAM, and the results extended to a fitted 3D polygon mesh face. A boundary perimeter with predefined anchor points and a predefined triangulation with the 3D polygon mesh is defined a predefined depth distance from the depth center of known landmarks within the 3D polygon mesh face. By rotating the 3D polygon mesh face relative to the boundary perimeter, which may follow the perimeter of the input image, new views of the input image are generated.
