Abstract
An avatar personalization engine can generate personalized avatars for a user by creating a 3D user model based on one or more images of the user. The avatar personalization engine can compute a delta between the 3D user model and an average person model, which is a model created based on the average measurements from multiple people. The avatar personalization engine can then apply the delta to a generic avatar model by changing measurements of particular features of the generic avatar model by amounts specified for corresponding features identified in the delta. This personalizes the generic avatar model to resemble the user. Additional features matching characteristics of the user can be added to further personalize the avatar model, such as a hairstyle, eyebrow geometry, facial hair, glasses, etc.
