The artistic possibilities of this are really fascinating. Looking forward to what people come up with! Projection mapping interactive art is always mesmerizing

Neat stuff. I wonder if one could use a neural network to try to do prediction as well.
Human movements are super stereotyped in the face and you could likely predict with decent accuracy the next frame given the previous frames.

Pretty cool. I've had this idea of converting face data into MIDI CC data to use with DAWs or synths, this could be a useful algorithm for it.
Is the source code available?

Or for fake propaganda videos. Dangerous time for these kinds of progress.

What sort of propaganda do you forsee this enabling?

Uh... this is a white paper about projecting an image onto a moving face. Not super imposing, but projecting... with a projector... using light... so what exactly are you worried about with this tech? Or is it just that you're afraid of face tracking in general? And it's not really about this topic specifically?
What is the SotA OSS for face tracking these days? I've never been able to make face tracking work without having alignment issues during movement.
