AI“复活”蒙娜丽莎

The Living Mona Lisa project uses artificial intelligence (AI) to transform the oil painting into a living, moving work of art.
“会动的蒙娜丽莎”项目利用人工智能(AI)将这幅油画转变为一个栩栩如生、会动的艺术作品。

While it does not perhaps tell us anything new about the woman in the painting – thought to be Lisa Gherardini – it perhaps lets viewers see her as da Vinci did while she posed for him.
尽管这可能无法告诉我们关于油画中的女子什么新信息，但也许可以让观赏者拥有跟当初达芬奇看着她摆好姿势为她画像时一样的体验。画中的女子据信是丽莎·盖拉尔迪尼。

The living painting uses motion sensing devices to pick up movements in the room, triggering reactions and 'mood' changes in the digital Mona Lisa.
这幅会动的画使用了动作感应装置，使数码版的蒙娜丽莎可以捕捉房间里的动作，及时做出回应以及产生“情绪”变化。

Unlike the original painting, which hangs in the Louvre museum in Paris, art lovers will also be able to take home their own digital living Mona Lisa for themselves.
与挂在巴黎卢浮宫的原画不同，任何喜爱它的艺术爱好者都可以把数码版的会动的蒙娜丽莎带回家。

The team behind the project, which consisted of 40 technicians and artists, plan to produce digital Mona Lisas in a variety of sizes and formats, including miniature versions that can be placed on pendants.
这个项目团队由40名技术人员和艺术家组成。他们打算推出一系列不同大小样式的数码版蒙娜丽莎，其中迷你版可以镶嵌在挂坠上。

To create their digital version of the painting, the team first used specialised computer software to capture a three dimensional wire frame image of the portrait.
为了创作这幅名画的数码版，这支团队首先利用专门的电脑软件捕捉了这幅肖像的三维线稿图。

They used computer technology that aims to mimic real-life movement so that when the figure moves, it appears to do so in three dimensions.
他们利用电脑技术来模仿真实的人物动作，使得蒙娜丽莎动起来时犹如在三维空间里行动。

They have combined this with the kind of motion sensing and facial recognition devices used on video game consoles.
他们还融合了视频游戏机中应用的动作感应和面部识别装置。

This allows the digital painting to tell when a viewer is looking directly at it. When no one is looking, the painting poses in profile as if lost in thought.
这使数码版的蒙娜丽莎可以辨别出观赏者是否在直视这幅画。当没人观看时，她就会露出侧脸，摆出一副陷入“沉思”的样子。

However, when the view looks directly at the digital Mona Lisa, it offers a slightly questioning smile.
一旦发现有人看过来，她便会露出略带疑惑的微笑。
