Get a 3D head model that i can use?

Hi,
i’m using Mathematica 9.0 (i can upgrade if needed) for several weeks, and work’s with 6 parameters in 3 axis. roll ,azimuth, elevetion ,x,y,z.
I did animated graph for in 2D for el,rl el,az, y,x y,z… and now i would like to have an animated 3D head model that i can active (animate) according to my graph, and by that i would be able to understand the head movment better. i belive there are ready models? if so, were can i get them? and how do i maneuvering them with my graph.

Thanks
Yakir.

first evaluate $ImportFormats to see what 3D formats your platform supports.

you can then google rendering modeling raytracing search hits (there are medical models, there are realistic looking models for media making that are hollow on the inside). you may need to avoid composite models - mathematica may need a complete model rather than a file which is composed of many separate models: this would depend on the format.

i suggest that modeling a head in 3D will not “help you understand head movement”

also: mathematica does NOT specialize in optimizing live animation of large complex models like some “modelers” do, so do not expect bleeding edge speed

If by “head” you mean the thing thats sits on top of most humans:

head = AnatomyData[Entity["AnatomicalStructure", "Skull"], "Graphics3D"];

RegionPlot3D@DiscretizeGraphics@head

If you have access to Wolfram data you can try this:

Show[Entity["AnatomicalStructure", "SkinOfHead"]["Graphics3D"], 
 Entity["AnatomicalStructure", "Sclera"]["Graphics3D"], 
 Entity["AnatomicalStructure", "Iris"]["Graphics3D"]]
