"Say Cheese" will be a thing of the past


New technology from Omron Corp. is able to analyze the curves of the lips, eye movement and other facial characteristics to decide how much a person is smiling.

Sony already has a similar Smile Shutter function for its digital cameras which automatically clicks the shutter when people in the image break into a smile.

The problem is, parents of pouty teenagers will not only face kids who won't take pictures, but will also face cameras that won't take pictures of pouty teenagers!
