Non-contact emotion detection

Non-contact emotion detection, analyzing eyebrows, eyes, mouth movements and micromovements allows to detect a wide range of emotions and feelings. In the last decades a handful of universal facial expressions have been recognized. Not all facial expressions stick around for a long time. Those that pass quickly are called micro-expressions and are almost indiscernible to the casual observer.

  • Emotion analysis: analyse and extract emotional stat of a person on the head’s vibrational parameters
