Bloomberg Businessweek scoped out a bunch of stations around the area to survey the top behavioral trends, then turned to experts for commentary: body language experts Patti Wood (author of the newly released Snap: Making the Most of First Impressions…) was one of the body language experts they interview.
Face Changes
Slate.com has revealed some very interesting pictures of soldiers faces before, during and after their term of service. They attempt to show how life changing situations are reflected in our faces and answer questions such as, Does tragedy truly show up in our eyes and brow?
Psychology Today has an interesting article that directly relates to Claire Felicie’s photographs, on the connection between looks and personality, which they purport play out on every face we see.
There is only a 12-month lapse between the first and last photos. Pay particular attention to the faces in the last photo especially their eyes and mouths. Even if you find that the wrinkles and marks are the same, comparing the left picture to the right there seems to be an undeniable difference, even if you cannot point to one thing specifically as the cause of that difference.

What do you notice in these faces?

Facial Expression of Emotions Recognition in Real Time – Really ?
Omron, a Japanese automation company, has just developed technology that can detect six of the seven universal facial expressions of emotion (happiness, disgust, sadness, fear, surprise, and anger) in real time.
They already have software, “OKAO Vision” that is currently used in the auto focus of digital cameras & smart phones.
In a past blog, we reported on this type of technology, which made its appearance in the video game L.A. Noire , which used motion scan technology to capture actors’ facial expressions from all angles. This can now be upgraded to reflect your facial expressions and use them to create a personalized avatar reacting and responding realistically and in real time in various interactive video games.
RTT News reports that this new technology combines the company’s 3D model-fitting technology and its statistical classification method to estimate facial expressions based on the relative position of all facial parts. The company also claims that the technology is capable of high-speed estimation that requires very little system memory.
Gamers everywhere rejoice technology is bringing many of you what you’ve always wanted…Realistic interactive software that puts you (at least your facial expressions) in the Game.
What do you think about this software? Is it really realistic and in real time? Or does technology still need to perfect this software?
