Identity-Obscured Neural Radiance Fields: Privacy-Preserving 3D Facial Reconstruction
Neural radiance fields (NeRF) typically require a complete set of images taken from multiple camera perspectives to accurately reconstruct geometric details. However, this approach raise significant privacy concerns in the context of facial reconstruction. The critical need for privacy protection often leads invidividuals to be reluctant in sharing their facial images, due to fears of potential misuse or security risks. Addressing these concerns, we propose a method that leverages privacy-preserving images for reconstructing 3D head geometry within the NeRF framework. Our method stands apart from traditional facial reconstruction techniques as it does not depend on RGB information from images containing sensitive facial data. Instead, it effectively generates plausible facial geometry using a series of identity-obscured inputs, thereby protecting facial privacy.
