Development of An Eyeglasses Try-on System Expressing Lens Distortion

Abstract

When searching for eyeglasses at optician's store, it is usual to try on eyeglass frames with lenses of plain glass. However, the impression may differ greatly between the face when wearing the eyeglass frame with lenses of plain glass and the face when wearing the eyeglass frame with prescription lenses. We propose a system that can display user’s faces when wearing the eyeglass frame with prescription lenses by using 3D computer graphics. Our system supports the task of selecting eyeglass frames with prescription lenses which suits to individual users.
