Kawaii Twikao Turns Your Face Into An Emoticon
Over on JapanTrends I came across Twikao, an iPhone app that turns your face into an emoticon or kaomoji. You simply take a photo of your own face and let the app do the rest. It’s a little wacky, but its undeniably creative.
The app is only able to detect human faces, because I tried it on my dog (as ya’ do) and an Angry Bird plush toy, but it doesn’t seem to work. There isn’t any business model except advertising for now.
Emoticons are popular in Japan, so it will be interesting to see how many people start playing with it. In the past we have also written about KakaoTalk, a Whatsapp-like service but with really cute emoticons — it is popular among Japanese and Koreans. Facebook could really use this service too if it were incorporated within its service.
Head over here to download the app for free (iTunes link).

かわいいTwikao(ツイカオ)であなたの表情を顔文字に
JapanTrendsサイトで、顔の表情を顔文字に変えるiPhone向けのアプリ、Twikao(ツイカオ)を偶然見た。自分自身の顔写真を撮れば、後はアプリにおまかせ。少し変わっているが、クリエイティブなことは否定できない。
このアプリが認識できるのは人の顔だけだ。というのも、私が飼っている犬(皆もするように)とアングリーバードのぬいぐるみで試してみたが、うまくいかなかった。今のところ、広告以外にビジネスモデルはない。

絵文字/顔文字は日本で人気があるので、どれほどの人がこのアプリを利用するのか興味深い。過去に、Whatsappに似ていて、かわいい絵文字機能のついたカカオトークについて記事を書いている。このアプリは日本や韓国で人気がある。Facebookもサービスに絵文字(顔文字)機能を取り入れれば、このサービスを本当に活かすことができると思う。
