New online free service from Microsoft allows you
something that could be considered a Sci-Fi just 20 years ago – it allows you
to identify exact emotions, communicated by the facial expressions, in an
image.
The whole operation is fast, simple, and does not require
sign-in or registration. Upload images from the pics stored on your computer or
through the valid URL link directly from the Web.
Limitations:
* Image resolution ≥ 36x36 pixels and the file size <
4MB,
* Supported image formats include JPEG, PNG, GIF (the
first frame), and BMP.
* The frontal and near-frontal faces have the best
results.
* And the maximum returning faces is set to 64 for each
image.
Developers offer disclaimer that the recognition is
experimental, and is not always accurate. Well, try it for yourself and see how
the results are satisfactory:
