■ Reference 1: Application of the facial distortion test results

• Shiseido will leverage the test results into further development of apps, such as adding a stress measuring function on 'Smile App*'.
*'Smile App,' developed by Shiseido, takes a picture of the face with a tablet device camera and recognizes it, then quantifies it, evaluates its impression, and records the data. Through these processes, your smile, which is usually evaluated subjectively by the people looking at you, is analyzed objectively based on the impression it gives to other people.
