Branch	Build Status

Overview

The Emotion API takes an image as an input, and returns the confidence across a set of emotions for each face in the image, as well as bounding box for the face, from the Face API. The emotions detected are happiness, sadness, surprise, anger, fear, contempt, disgust or neutral. These emotions are communicated cross-culturally and universally via the same basic facial expressions, where are identified by Emotion API.

This repository contains the .NET Core SDK and sample application that allow you to enter your API key and specify an image to detect emotion in.

Before you can use the SDK or run the sample application you must subscribe to the Emotion API which is part of Microsoft Cognitive Services. You can learn how to subscribe here.

The Client Library

The client library is a thin .NET Core client wrapper for the Emotion API. The easiest way to use this client library is to get the microsoft.projectxoford.emotion.dotnetcore package from nuget. Please go to the .NET Core Emotion API Package in Nuget for more details.
