“Face to Face” moments are everywhere, for instance on Youtube, Reality TV, and Social Media. Next, “Virtual Face-to-Face” will enable us to talk to game characters, VFX digital doubles and VR avatars in much the same way. This requires 100% realism of CG humans, especially their eyes. Transfolio introduces a new eye scan technology as a service to capture 3D human eyes for VFX, Game Characters and Virtual Reality.

Pre-2017, eyes are created artistically through trial & error (some great, most not so)
