Herta announces the launch of the new video analysis solution, BioObserver. This software will mark a significant change in the study of human behaviour and facial expression analysis.

Based on advanced Artificial Intelligence techniques, BioObserver automatically detects and annotates a person’s facial expressions and micro-expressions, as well as the direction of the gaze and head orientation, in order to monitor behavioural metrics such as affective states or the individual’s level of attention.

User-friendly facial recognition

The platform also allows configuring automatic rules and annotations of events to extract keyframes of the video that are considered of interest. With BioObserver one can detect subtle micro-expressions such as “frowning”, “blinking” or “raising eyebrows”, according to the Facial Action Coding System by Paul Ekman. The tool offers the possibility to work at a very low level. Then, the combination of some micro-expressions may form a higher-level prototypic facial emotion (such as joy, anger, sadness, fear, surprise…) which can be configured in the software as well.

This new solution has been co-created together with key end-customers from the law enforcement sector, resulting in a user-friendly, intuitive, and time-saving tool that any interviewer would love. The solution is being offered on a SaaS model and will give the customer the possibility to process hours of video, extremely fast and at a very affordable cost.
