Surface mapping for face

Hi,
I am wondering is it possible to get surface mapping for uneven surface such as human face?
I know the surface mapping provides geometry information of the surface. Can I get corresponding color information?

Thanks.

    I don't believe the resolution of the spatial meshes is high enough for this sort of application, although if you try scanning a person, you'll definitely see that it's possible to get a very crude mesh.

    Color information could be obtained by using the locatable camera to take actual photos, and then backing out the positions in the photo that correspond to the mesh vertices. I don't think it's easy but it's doable and people have demonstrated this sort of thing with room scanning, for example.

    Thanks trzy.
    1. Is it possible to change the resolution of the spatial mesh?
    2. You mean surface mapping itself only use depth sensor information, so I have to use the color camera, right?
    3. Would you please tell me the example you mentioned.

    Thanks.
