Abstract

Facial image data of an individual is collected of the individual to provide mental state data using a first web-enabled computing device. The mental state data is analyzed to produce mental state information using a second web-enabled computing device. The mental state information is shared across a social network using a third web-enabled computing device. The mental state data is also collected from the individual through capture of sensor information. The mental state data is also collected from the individual through capture of audio data. The individual elects to share the mental state information across the social network. The mental state data may be collected over a period of time and analyzed to determine a mood of the individual. The mental state information is translated into a representative icon for sharing, which may include an emoji. An image of the individual is shared along with the mental state information.
