Emotion Based Music Player

A web application that plays music based on your emotions using face detection. The web app detects the face of the user and plays music based on the emotion detected.

The problem Emotion Based Music Player solves

How cool would it be if there is a music player that plays songs based on your mood? This is exactly what our web application does. Just by merely taking the user's face as an input, the application will detect the emotion of the user using AI/Ml algorithms. The pre-existing technologies require the user to manually select the playlist/songs based on their moods. However, our application automates this task. This makes it convenient for the user to listen to songs based on their emotions. This technology proves to be an efficient way of music recommendation and could bring a new perspective to online music streaming apps. -- > PreTrained Model Link = https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GDtwC1RAm8x8FdfPod3K05sDobT5olgN/view

Challenges we ran into

The Initial challenge we ran into was regarding face detection. We implemented FisherFace Algorithm and the performance was better than the previous algorithms.
The next challenge we ran into was playing sound asynchronously according to the user’s emotion. We solved this problem by playing the music for a certain amount of time and then once again detected the user's emotion, stopped the previous music and played the new one based on the emotion detected. Another challenge we ran into was that the face not being detected during the development of a web app for the Emotion Based Music Player. Due to a small bug in the code the face was not detected even though the image was captured. This bug was then sorted out by making few changes in the code. -- > PreTrained Model Link = https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GDtwC1RAm8x8FdfPod3K05sDobT5olgN/view
