Abstract
Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that generates values for a representation of a face of a user. For example, an example process may include obtaining sensor data (e.g., live data) of a user, wherein the sensor data is associated with a point in time, generating a set of values representing the user based on the sensor data, and providing the set of values, where a depiction of the user at the point in time is displayed based on the set of values. In some implementations, the set of values includes depth values that define three-dimensional (3D) positions of portions of the user relative to multiple 3D positions of points of a projected surface and appearance values (e.g., color, texture, opacity, etc.) that define appearances of the portions of the user.
