„Leaked“ videos of political enemies saying abysmal things

The Protocols of the Elders of Zion on steroids.

Uh... this is a white paper about projecting an image onto a moving face. Not super imposing, but projecting... with a projector... using light... so what exactly are you worried about with this tech? Or is it just that you're afraid of face tracking in general? And it's not really about this topic specifically?
It’s about high speed face tracking.

Can you imagine other use cases than projection?

You don't need high speed face tracking to make video edits, those are not going to be done in real time.
> Can you imagine other use cases than projection?

yes

vtubers

human interface device for quadriplegics

automated camera tracking/zoom for video calls

emotion recognition support software for people with difficulty reading or understanding emotions (ASD)

truly smart, smart home that can track and respond to gaze, e.g. "can you turn off that light" and it will turn off the light they're looking at

sleep detection for smart locks

liveness detection for identify verification systems

vr tracking for interactions that both escape the uncanny valley, and feel more real time

need more?

Yes, list the malicious ones too.
impersonation?

are there others?
