When scanning an actor's face in multiple static facial expressions,
it is often desirable for the resulting scans to all have the same topology
and for the textures to all be in the same UV space. Such
"corresponded" scans would enable the straightforward creation
of blendshape-based facial rigs. We present Vuvuzela, a semi automated
facial scan correspondence tool. Vuvuzela is currently
being used in our facial rigging pipeline, and was one of the key
tools in the Digital Ira project.
