# Expressive VR Headsets This New VR Headset Translates Your Facial Expressions By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2016-07-26 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-vr-headset References: [gizmag](http://www.gizmag.com/veeso-face-tracking-vr-headset/44512/) & [veeso](http://www.veeso.com/) The Veeso is a new VR headset that is claimed to be the very first in the world to be fully capable of detecting and capturing your facial expressions before translating and super-imposing them onto a virtual avatar in real time. This particular headset makes use of a pair of [infra-red cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emteq-labs-sense) that are more than capable of studying the wearer's facial expressions before translating them. One of the cameras is situated between the wearer's eyes and captures different parameters relative to their eye expression and position, while the second camera studies the lower half of the face to put together a coherent and fully formed facial analysis. Ultimately, this new VR headset could make it possible to create a whole new level of emotional connections in the world of app interfaces as well as online social gaming. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.5/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 75% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Emotional VR Interfaces:** Detected facial expressions can be translated and super-imposed onto virtual avatars in real time, revolutionizing app interfaces and online social gaming. - **Facial Expression Analysis:** Infra-red cameras capture and study facial expressions to provide a coherent and fully formed analysis, enabling innovative applications in emotion recognition and communication. - **Enhanced Immersion Technology:** The Veeso VR headset offers a new level of emotional connections by allowing users to express and communicate their true emotions in virtual environments. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Virtual Reality:** The Veeso VR headset provides a unique solution for enhancing emotional connections and immersion in virtual reality experiences. - **Gaming:** The technology behind Veeso's facial expression analysis opens up opportunities for realistic and emotive interactions in online social gaming. - **App Development:** The use of expressive VR headsets like Veeso can revolutionize app interfaces by introducing real-time translation of facial expressions, leading to more engaging and immersive user experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Facial Movement Game Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gameface.md) - [VR-Enabling Exercise Attachments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/360vrfit.md) - [Spatial Video Communication Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wehead.md) - [Healthy Lifestyle VR Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portalverse-vr-headset.md) - [Compact Featherlight VR Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bigscreen-beyond-headset.md) - [Industry-Leading VR Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vive-focus-vision.md) - [Mixed Reality Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vision-discovery.md) - [Fitness-Focused VR Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hemvr.md) - [Emotion-Sensing Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emteq-labs-sense.md)
