There are many things that make the human body and each individual person unique, be it their symmetry, emotions, facial expressions, and of course their eyes. Disney's tough team of computer graphics experts has derived a way to generate an ultra realistic human eye using a combination of people, lighting, and many expensive cameras. Pascal Berard, a Ph.D student in computer graphics currently working for Disney's research team behind the algorithm, expresses his excitement and explains the difficulty and expense of the process in the article.
This article does really put in perspective the advances currently being made in the animation and graphics field, and strengthens its possibility for the future. The idea of actors them selves being replaced by animated replicas opens the door for a whole new era of entertainment. For better or worse I cannot wait to see how this unfolds.
