Facial Recognition SDK for Application and Web Developers

12/10/2007

Effective immediately, for a limited time Luxand.com offers software and Web developers a $3000 worth free single-server license for FaceMorpher Web Edition.

Operating an online entertainment service? Enhance your Web-based software with smooth, realistic animation effects performed on peoples' faces! Recognize faces automatically on uploaded photos, transform and morph faces one into another, and create animated "talking head" avatars in 3D automatically on your Web server with FaceMorpher Web Edition! Similar solutions may cost you a fortune, but for a limited time Luxand.com gives away fully-featured, single-server FaceMorpher Web Edition licenses worth $3000 for absolutely free.

Traditional approaches to face animation require the visitors to manually select facial features on the uploaded pictures, while restricting their choice of images with passport-style photos. The additional steps and extra requirements take away the fun, and the feature is soon abandoned by the majority of the visitors.

FaceMorpher Web Edition obsoletes human intervention by lifting the strict photo requirements and removing any and manual work, providing much faster and more reliable detection of facial features than an untrained person can ever achieve.

Run unique, live chat rooms and organizing virtual meetings for your visitors with animated 3D avatars created by FaceMorpher Web Edition completely automatically. A single server can perform up to 10,000 morphs a day, withholding massive abuse with no human interaction.

Morph peoples' faces one into another in a smooth animation or make synthetic images of a couple's child with FaceMorpher Web Edition. The entertainment opportunities are literally endless! Enhancing your online entertainment services with facial animations immediately refers new visitors and makes it easier to retain returning users. The animation technology is widely recognized among the entertainment industry, and has been featured by Universal Pictures on the "Knocked Up" Web site. Claim your free license now while the time-limited offer still lasts!

07/10/2007

Luxand facial feature recognition and automatic face morphing technologies has been licensed by The Picture Production Company (The PPC) on behalf of Universal Pictures to create an interactive promotional website for the comedy movie "Knocked Up".   

The PPC, a leading film marketing company in the UK, employed Luxand face recognition and morphing technologies to create a promotional website for the comedy "Knocked Up" for Universal Pictures.

Luxand are thrilled to be offering The PPC and Universal Pictures the newest facial recognition and morphing solutions to create a promo project for the movie. The partnership between the two companies is a phenomenal opportunity for Luxand to demonstrate the results of adopting its entertainment technologies worldwide.  

The ground-breaking facial recognition and automatic face morphing technologies were developed after analyzing thousands of faces. The resulting animations and morphs are nothing short of outstanding in quality and accuracy. The technologies are delivered in a single Software Development Kit SDK, which is now available for anyone to license.

Luxand technologies provide endless opportunities to online entertainment services and software developers making imaging and video applications. The technologies can be used to create smooth animations and video content for content-rich websites. Recent products developed by Luxand feature the same technologies present in the SDK, and include FaceMorpher, a face morphing software, and Chord Pickout, a powerful software tool for music recognition.

Online entertainment industry is booming with the expansion and widespread presence of high-speed Internet. Luxand technologies allow online businesses get ahead of competition by offering their visitors a new and unique set of gimmicks. Online visitors to entertainment portals and chat rooms can easily create 'talking head' avatars by simply uploading a picture of their face. Having a library of human faces, the entertainment website can easily offer services unseen before, such as morphing the two people's faces to reconstruct a picture of their child or presenting a smooth animation showing one face transforming into another.
