It is useful to include emojis in your messages as a quick indicator of emotional state, but why should you have to call up a special keyboard, or scroll through many alternatives, when your emotional state could be read off your face? The goal of this project is to augment the on-screen keyboard by using the front facing camera (and/or depth data provided by the device) to just read off the emotional state and put the "right" emoji in. It could also be useful to use other sensors of the device to better assess the emotional and physical state of the user in selecting the fitting emoji.
