EasyToon: cartoon personalization using face photos

Published: 26 October 2008 Publication History

Abstract

In this demo, we present a family photo album based cartoon personalization system, EasyToon. Using the family photo album as the candidate pool, a personalized cartoon image is obtained in two main steps. First, the best face candidate is selected from the album interactively. Then a personalized cartoon image is automatically synthesized by lending the selected face into the target cartoon image. By integrating state of the art computer vision and graphics technologies and effective UI design EasyToon can generate a personalized cartoon storyboard easily and quickly.
