The present invention is a method and system for measuring human response to retail elements, based on the shopper's facial expressions and behaviors. From a facial image sequence, the facial geometry—facial pose and facial feature positions—is estimated to facilitate the recognition of facial expressions, gaze, and demographic categories. The recognized facial expression is translated into an affective state of the shopper and the gaze is translated into the target and the level of interest of the shopper. The body image sequence is processed to identify the shopper's interaction with a given retail element—such as a product, a brand, or a category. The dynamic changes of the affective state and the interest toward the retail element measured from facial image sequence is analyzed in the context of the recognized shopper's interaction with the retail element and the demographic categories, to estimate both the shopper's changes in attitude toward the retail element and the end response—such as a purchase decision or a product rating.

A system and method is presented for virtually fitting clothing, jewelry, hats, or eyewear frames utilizing 3D scans of a user's face and/or body. The system and method include inputting a 3D scan of a user's face and a 3D model of the item into the software. The 3D image of the item to be fitted is placed on the face or body image resulting from the 3D scan and is iteratively moved until collision is detected between the 3D model of the item and the 3D model of the face or body. A recommendation engine can be used to recommend different items to the user based on the virtual fit. Eyewear frames may be recommended based on testing each model to determine if temple pieces are long enough to get over the ear and if flex is too great or too small.

The present invention is a system and method for increasing the value of the audio-visual entertainment systems, such as karaoke, by simulating a virtual stage environment and enhancing the user's facial image in a continuous video input, automatically, dynamically and in real-time.
