Hey, Justin or anyone.
I just got an idea. How hard would it be to simply allow your Facial Software to Detect emotions. We have software to demonstrate emotions and can make the robot have emotions. But, can we interface emotion seeking software into the EZB program? If a robot could sense posture, body language and even a simple smile or frown, it could be much more accepted into a household. People are about Feelings. I just realized that when I saw the Pepper Robot demonstration. I would like to hear if this would be a possibility for you in the future. I would like for my sunshine to make eye contact and KNOW if I am happy or sad.
Please, give me your Thoughts on these matters.

Justin, that is using your brain program? i have to wait until I get my new camera in. It is HD and autofocus.
I am happy this is already done. You have made me very happy.
I have another question for JUSTIN.
OK, so you train the image and the robot knows YOU are happy. How can we make it work on everybody? Couldn't we map a certain set of vectors? Like dots on the brows, dots on the lips? It really seems like it could be done. Everyone has brows, everyone has lips. Could we make this work with a sort of frame? for instant ANGRY could be \ / for brows.
@Richard R, sounds like a plan.
@Mel, the object training I did was in ARC. It was very easy, straight forward and works well for one person (maybe a couple more).
For software to recognize if you are happy or sad in multiple people you'd need to invent something new. OpenCV has a custom haar for the face like you mentioned, it's called: haarcascade_mcs_mouth.xml I have found a couple of software companies that have posted demos of using this haar to create a custom application. I don't even want to ask what they would charge for their code or to create an application.
what you think off this?
Justin R, Thank you for responding, can I learn more about this? sounds great.
Patrick, Thanks for sharing examples of emotion. Steve S
your welkom steve.S
@Steve... as Justin said it's easy, you can use object training in ARC. You just need a camera, ARC and your face...
