Cyberextruder

CyberExtruder is a leader in identity management technology solutions. Known for reconstruction technology that transforms two-dimensional (2D) images to three-dimensional (3D) models, CyberExtruder’s unique solutions have become an important facial recognition resource for the intelligence, security and law enforcement communities. The Company’s software algorithms automatically create 3D meshes of a human head in real-time from one or more unconstrained images. In the early 2000’s , CyberExtruder’s 3D technology was renowned in the entertainment and video gaming industries, powering avatars and later, personalized Second Life characters. This legacy of innovation paved the way for Aureus 3D, a software product which improves the matching and identification capabilities of facial recognition systems by taking a subject’s facial image and reconstructing it into a 3D format that factors in varied poses and facial expressions as well as compensating for poor lighting and partial images.

The Company has secured four Patents for methods to generate a 3D representation from a 2D image, and secured similar patents from the European Patent Organization to extend the company’s intellectual rights protection into EU and Pacific Rim countries. CyberExtruder’s advanced techniques leverage algorithms and software from their initial applications in entertainment and video games to create innovative facial recognition solutions.

For more than a decade, CyberExtruder has been evangelizing the benefits of using 3D information to recognize and identify unknown subjects. In the Facial Recognition Vendor’s Test (FRVT) of 2002, the National Institute of Standards and Technology first recognized the value of utilizing 3D information. In 2010, CyberExtruder embarked on its most ambitious project to date: 3D facial recognition from video images.
