Intra-expo: Augmented Emotion By Superimposing Comic Book Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a method for conveying emotions in face-toface communication by superimposing comic book images on real world using augmented reality technology. We implemented a system named “Intra-expo” that superimposes comic book images which influence our estimation of emotional state around the user. In order to build the system, we analyzed how subjects estimated the emotional state of a person when the person's image was superimposed on various comic book images. We then constructed a prototype of Intra-expo, which detects the user using the Microsoft Kinect system and projects different comic book images around the user, who selects their emotional state using an Apple iPhone as a mobile interface.
