Hints for better capturing of smiles
1 Do not cover the eyes with the bangs.
2 Try to orient the face in front of the
camera and be as level as possible.
The detection rate is higher when the
eyes are narrowed.
3 Give a clear smile with an open mouth.
The smile is easier to detect when the
teeth are showing.
