Abstract
We have developed a real-time system for expressing emotion as a pictograph
selected according to the facial expression while writing a message. The
image signal is analyzed by our real-time system using image processing
software (OpenCV) and a previously proposed feature parameter. We applied
the system to post a message and a pictograph expressing the facial expression
while writing the message on an SNS. The experimental results suggest that
our system can be useful for expressing emotions while writing messages.
