Today is the era of fast and dynamic internet and communication technologies. Hence, the communication is convenient as compared to the past. Use of communications through different channels, such as mobile phones and computers, are very common in today’s era. E-mails, text messaging, blog entries, and comments are some of the forms of communication which are very common today. To enhance the experience of communication, emojis were developed by the Japanese mobile companies such as Vodafone. Emoji’s are the pictorial depiction of the facial expression of human beings. They are very helpful in the facilitation of human emotional experiences. This research thesis investigates emotional recognition using facial expression by emoji in real time. Moreover, it also develops the parameters of measuring the facial expression and understanding the facial emotion recognition in real time. The application developed includes six human expressions, which include neutral, fear, anger, happy, sad, and surprise emotions. These expressions are the actual expressions which are being conveyed in human beings. The investigations of such expression are important because of their ability to better express human emotions and the way they facilitate communications among the people. Recommendations on further research will be provided for researchers.
