There are quite a few areas of believability that we?ve crested in video game graphics, and with the next generation of consoles closing in, developers are hard at work pushing those limits even further. In particular, animating realistic characters has been an area of continued focus. The next innovation in realistic character modeling could be hair, namely more accurate real-time hair physics.
As animators focus on creating believable characters, a lot of attention has been put into face modeling and animation. Subtle twitches of the eyes and realistic reactions of the muscles across the face help convey a certain life and emotion. Technology has come a long way to allow direct face capture and photogrammetry, as well as AI learning that can automate facial movements without animators having to manually tweak everything themselves. But if there?s one thing that can remind you that you?re still playing a video game, it?s poor hair physics.
