ABSTRACT

Optic- and computer-aided surgery is a new, original tool for the diagnosis of dismorphies, both in its conception (digitalization of a Moiré pattern on the body) and in its applications (predominantly surgical, for legal medicine and didactic purposes). By means of this three-dimensional (3D) method of measurement by digitalized Moiré, the forms of the body in general and those of the face in particular can be studied and quantified with a high degree of accuracy. This precision in the geometrical analysis of its forms is achieved by combining the latest developments in optics and computer technology. This article presents the current state of the authors' research in the 3D synthesis and manipulation of the human image.
