Title
mimicat: face input interface supporting animatronics costume performer's facial expression
Abstract
Today a character costume can be seen in many places, such as amusement facilities, sport stadium and so on. They perform comical and funny body action for us. In general, the performers can't control their costume's facial expression. We developed "mimicat" that can synchronizing performer's facial action and costume's one. A character costume performer can do more comical action by using mimicat. At first our motivation is combining animatronics and face and expression recognition.
