How are you feeling today? Now someone else wearing Google Glass can answer that question for you.
The Shore Human Emotion Detector (SHORE),
can detect basic emotions, someone’s gender and predict how old you are
in real time. The app was developed by researchers at the Fraunhofer
Institute for Integrated Circuits in Germany.
In an attempt to sidestep any privacy concerns surrounding the app,
the developers have promised not send any images or data to the cloud.
SHORE also prohibits you from being able to find out anyone’s identity
through it.
The app can gauge whether someone is angry, happy, sad or surprised. The product specifications on the official site say that the app has a 94.3% detection rate for
the gender of the face you are looking at. The technology uses a
database of more than 10,000 annotated faces as its reference point for
identifying real ones. The Fraunhofer Institute told CNET last week that the software took “years” to develop.
