SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR APPLYING A REFLECTANCE MODIFYING AGENT TO CHANGE A PERSON'S APPEARANCE BASED ON A DIGITAL IMAGE
First Claim
1. A system to change the appearance of a region of a first person'"'"'s skin, the system comprisingat least one desired image of skin;
- a computing device comprising enhancement software to determine the difference between the region of the first person'"'"'s skin and the desired image; and
an apparatus comprisingat least one reflectance modifying agent application element, such that the reflectance modifying agent application element selectively applies a reflectance modifying agent to specific frexels in accordance with the difference between the region of the first person'"'"'s skin and the desired image.

Abstract
A computer-controlled system determines attributes of a frexel, which is an area of human skin, and applies a reflectance modifying agent (RMA) at the pixel level to automatically change the appearance of human features based on one or more digital images. The change may be based on a digital image of the same frexel, for as seen in a prior digital photograph captured previously by the computer-controlled system. The system scans the frexel and uses feature recognition software to compare the person'"'"'s current features in the frexel with that person'"'"'s features in the digital image. It then calculates enhancements to the make the current features appear more like the features in the digital image, and it applies the RMA to the frexel to accomplish the enhancements. Or the change may be based on a digital image of another person, through the application of RMAs.

6. An method to change the appearance of a region of a first person'"'"'s skin, the method comprising
obtaining a digital image showing at least a portion of the first person'"'"'s desired appearance; -
scanning a plurality of frexels of the first person to obtain a frexel feature map; deriving enhancement data by comparing the plurality of frexels to the digital image; defining a printable reconstruction image from the enhancement data; applying a reflectance modifying agent to the plurality of frexels to create an enhancement. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
