Abstract

In the context of a broader project addressing the sound description of the aspect and expressions of the human face, a prototype has been implemented and presented during a scientific dissemination initiative. The final goal is to employ face-tracking and sound-synthesis techniques in order to strengthen or even replace visual communication, in particular sonifying facial expressions for visually impaired people. In this work we present the implementation of a proof of concept and some early results.
