From selfie to emoji

In a social-media-savvy generation, selfies and the ability to express yourself go hand in hand. With the Galaxy S9 and S9+, you can now create an emoji that looks like you by simply taking a photo of yourself. Not just that, your digital mini me can also mimic your movements and expressions.

Using a data-based machine learning algorithm, the latest flagship smartphone analyzes a 2D image of the user. It then maps out more than 100 facial features to create a 3D model that mirrors your expressions. The Galaxy S9 and S9+ also feature 18 pre-set expressions like winks, nods, and smiles that respond in nearly real-time for true personalization.
