1 - Light Field Rendering which uniquely accounts for the level of light, texture, and shine in the photo or video and adjusts the makeup shades dynamically.
2 - ModiFace's latest advances in facial feature tracking and rendering, precisely map cosmetics at the right location on the face in live video.
3 - New multi-core optimized web makeup rendering enables smooth and ultra-fast performance across a wide range of computing devices and browsers, with most running above 30 frames-per-second with no noticeable latency.

"ModiFace's Augmented Reality allows us to seamlessly bring the in-store experience of trying on a lipstick to our consumers -- whether they're shopping from their living rooms or on-the-go. It's a simple and fun way for women to effortlessly explore our wide shade and formula range in lipsticks before they purchase, allowing consumers to have fun with AR and make a decision with confidence," said Laurie Rifkin, Executive Director of Ecommerce at Bobbi Brown Cosmetics.
The Bobbi Brown e-commerce, AR integration, enables shoppers to preview some of the brand's most popular beauty products directly on the product pages where customers make purchasing decisions. It is expected that this integration will have a direct impact on e-commerce sales on the brand's web and mobile web sites.
