Abstract

Automatic facial expression recognition technology can help researchers to conduct behavioral analyses and to improve the usability of a variety of software systems, especially in the domains of education and computer games. In order to obtain accurate results, it is important to conduct large-scale experiments over hundreds or even thousands of subjects; however, to date there is no freely available platform to conduct experiments of this scale. This project focuses on creating a reaction recording platform. It will help facilitate creating large scale experiments where subjects from around the world can participate in the same experiment. A web application is created with HTML5 and JavaScript and is hosted on a Node.js server. The application enables subjects to record their facial reactions to a stimulus video and upon submission it is sent to a server which the researcher is able to access.
