Professor’s App Provides Makeovers on the Run

July 20, 2011

Do you need to test a new shade of lipstick while on the run? Look no further.
 
A new smart phone application developed by Professor Parham Aarabi (ECE) can provide users with a virtual makeover. Using facial recognition technology, the app offers individuals the chance to test different shades of make-up using their iPhone or Android phone. The app also takes advantage of patent-pending Shade Match technology for realistic shade and shimmer.
 
The application was developed by Professor Aarabi’s company, ModiFace. The application features more than 1,000 shades and integrates social media, so you can consult your friends before making a final determination on which look is right for you.
 
The new app is profiled in Jerry Seregni’s technology blog on WVUE-TV’s website.
