} Video Face Swap – Realistic and High-Performance Video Face Swap API
Overview
The Video Face Swap API allows you to replace a face in a video using a single still image. It processes the video frame by frame, aligning the new face with the original person’s movements and expressions for a seamless result.
The technology builds a detailed representation of the face you're inserting and adjusts it to fit naturally onto every frame. It adapts well to various angles and lighting conditions, making it easy to use without the need for complex setup or additional tools.
Key Features
- Consistent Face Alignment: Keeps the swapped face stable and properly positioned across all video frames.
- Natural Expression Retention: Preserves the original facial expressions, maintaining the emotion and tone of the scene.
- Adaptable to Movement: Automatically adjusts the face to match natural head movements and angles.
- Lighting Adaptation: Blends the new face into the video by adjusting its lighting to match the overall look and feel.
