For years, law enforcement professionals have used professional sketch artists to “sketch” a composite of a suspect’s face from witness descriptions. However, many police departments are unable to staff the high-level of skill necessary to make this important police function effective. Industry has answered with a variety of software tools to create composites of suspects. However, the two-dimensional tools provided by these photo programs are very limited in their ability to realistically render a 3D object
Drawbacks to hand-sketching and 2D photo approaches include:
-
Primarily, the end result is a flat, rough approximation of what the suspect might resemble.
-
Accurately adding features or adjusting existing elements such as hair or age will usually require a complete re-draw or significant time and effort.
-
Many police precincts cannot afford to hire a full-time sketch artist, or the one on staff is overworked and does not have time to create dozens of possible appearances for a suspect.
Using Genex’s patented 3D morphing technology, law enforcement professionals can now sketch a truly accurate composite with amazingly life-like 3D features. 3D SketchArtist™ transforms typical sketches into rapidly evolving 3D mock-ups that can change poses, expressions, and even lighting in mere seconds. 3D SketchArtist can even make the character move and talk!
3D SketchArtist enables novices to render accurate composites like an expert. The simple, user-friendly interface makes powerful capabilities accessible to anyone while allowing more advanced users the flexibility to precisely adjust features. Users can change virtually any aspect of the human face, including:
Major Features:
- 3D Morphing Capabilities
- 3D Hair and Facial Hair
- Skin and Texture
- Pose, Expression, and Lighting
- Teeth
When integrated with Genex’s SureMatch 3D Suite™ of tools for facial recognition, users can share face data between applications. The powerful capabilities of 3D SketchArtist enable officers and investigators to start with a witness’ description, and end up with a computerized match against a database of criminals.
Now, law enforcement has a new tool to fight against crime – a 3D SketchArtist!
