    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with generating and animating avatars are disclosed. The apparatus may comprise an avatar generator to receive an image having a face of a user; analyze the image to identify various facial and related components of the user; access an avatar database to identify corresponding artistic renditions for the various facial and related components stored in the database; and combine the corresponding artistic renditions for the various facial and related components to form an avatar, without user intervention. The apparatus may further comprise an avatar animation engine to animate the avatar in accordance with a plurality of animation messages having facial expression or head pose parameters that describe facial expressions or head poses of a user determined from an image of the user.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with animating and rendering an avatar are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus may include a facial expression and speech tracker to respectively receive a plurality of image frames and audio of a user, and analyze the image frames and the audio to determine and track facial expressions and speech of the user. The tracker may further select a plurality of blend shapes, including assignment of weights of the blend shapes, for animating the avatar, based on tracked facial expressions or speech of the user. The tracker may select the plurality of blend shapes, including assignment of weights of the blend shapes, based on the tracked speech of the user, when visual conditions for tracking facial expressions of the user are determined to be below a quality threshold. Other embodiments may be disclosed and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Apparatus, systems, media and/or methods may involve animating avatars. User facial motion data may be extracted that corresponds to one or more user facial gestures observed by an image capture device when a user emulates a source object. An avatar animation may be provided based on the user facial motion data. Also, script data may be provided to the user and/or the user facial motion data may be extracted when the user utilizes the script data. Moreover, audio may be captured and/or converted to a predetermined tone. Source facial motion data may be extracted and/or an avatar animation may be provided based on the source facial motion data. A degree of match may be determined between the user facial motion data of a plurality of users and the source facial motion data. The user may select an avatar as a user avatar and/or a source object avatar.

    Abstract: A video communication system that replaces actual live images of the participating users with animated avatars. A method may include selecting an avatar, initiating communication, capturing an image, detecting a face in the image, extracting features from the face, converting the facial features to avatar parameters, and transmitting at least one of the avatar selection or avatar parameters. The system is configured to allow a user to select a new avatar during active communication with a remote user.
