Founded in the United Kingdom in 2000 by Ph.D's in computer vision, Image Metrics focused on facial animation after determining that it offered the most challenging test for its technology. Soon after, Image Metrics applied that technology to the games market on the Sony Computer Entertainment video game, The Getaway, in 2002. Rockstar Games also saw the benefits of Image Metrics facial animation early on, with our company providing facial animation for Rockstar titles as early as Manhunt in 2003.
