Zusammenfassung: | One variation of a method for enabling autopilot functionality during a video call includes, during an operating period: receiving a sequence of frames from a camera in a first device; detecting a face, of a first user, in the sequence of frames; generating a sequence of facial landmark containers representing facial actions of the face of the first user; transmitting the sequence of facial landmark containers to a second device for combination with a look model to generate a first synthetic image feed depicting facial actions of the first user; and detecting a trigger event. The method also includes, during an autopilot operating period, entering autopilot mode; retrieving a prerecorded autopilot sequence of facial landmark containers from a memory; and transmitting the prerecorded autopilot sequence of facial landmark containers to the second device for combination with the look model to generate a second synthetic image feed depicting predefined facial actions. |
