Toyota, Sony Develop Mood-Sharing Tail-Wagging Car
by Decius at 7:59 am EDT, Oct 18, 2001

This is a car that responds to the emotions of the people inside. If it senses a happy mood it automatically takes a picture. (How Japaneese)

I need to setup a ubicomp topic. I wrote a paper in college about how potential privacy concerns with ubicomp recording systems in might be curtailed if the system could judge your emotional reaction to a context and file the data accordingly... IMHO this car will "get it wrong" and it will take a while before this sort of stuff is accurate. A funny post from slashdot:

Susie: MMmmmmmsmack!kissgrope!
David: MMmmsmack!gropekiss!
Susie: Slurpgurglesuck!
David: Slurplicklicklick!
Car: Oooh! Happy moment! Everybody smile! [photoflash!]
...next day...
Mom: Susie, I just had the car photos processed... I wanna have a word with you...
