Ice Cream Worthy Smiles
According to SapientNitro we have special and happy memories of eating ice cream. To tap those memories they created the world’s first smile-activated machine that vends ice cream. The machine Share Happy, can sense your presence, lure your closer with sounds and graphics and then, with permission, take and analyze your picture. Those with great smiles are rewarded with an ice cream bar. Facial recognition software reads your smile and also infers your gender and age. The goal? And I quote – “… to encourage people everywhere to share life’s small moments of happiness.”
The plan to to deploy Share Happy in high traffic areas (e.g. malls) around the world over the next 18 months.
