During a Crazy Chat session, the program uses the input from the local user’s webcam, and does image processing to detect key facial features such as the eyes and the corners of the mouth. It uses these features to determine parameters that describe the user’s expression, such as head tilt, head distance, mouth shape, and blinking. These parameters are then sent across the network, and are used to render a 3D “cartoony” version of the person’s face on the remote user’s computer (in the current version of Crazy Chat, there is a dog and a shark face). </p> <p>Crazy Chat has several appealing benefits beyond the inherent fun of being turned into a three dimensional Labrador. The first is that it is extremely low bandwidth. For each frame, we only need to send about one hundred bytes, rather than many kilobytes for streaming video. This could potentially allow for large multi-conference Crazy Chats, in which each user represents a different creature in an online RPG troop. Another advantage of Crazy Chat over ordinary video conferencing is that it allows the user a higher degree of privacy. Rolled eyes, bed hair and messy rooms are all suppressed behind the exaggerated smiles of an urban hyena or razor sharp winks of a lady killer whale. And of course the inherent fun alluded to earlier should not be casually dismissed. Gaim is first and foremost and entertainment application.</p> </td></tr> @@ -110,7 +110,8 @@ The mobile phone will send the SMS autom <tr><td class="highlight">Collaborative Code Editor - Christian Kim</td></tr> <tr><td><p>A plug-in for gaim that would allow developers to join a chat room where they can collaboratively edit files specially tailored for coding.
