Virtual communication these days is impossible to imagine without emoticons and other similar pictograms. And the Singaporean designers from the Voidworks studio decided to try to convey with the help of these visual elements not only meanings and intonations, but also images. For this, they created a special Emojify appdesigned for iPhone mobile phones.
Emoticons are an integral part of modern visual culture, which is used even far beyond virtual communication. The Fuehlometer lighthouse, which shows the general mood in the German city of Lindau, or creative silver jewelry from Chao and Eero can be cited as quite successful examples of such a digital element entering the real world.
The Singapore-based company Voidworks, on the contrary, decided not to display emoticons and other similar elements outside the virtual world. But she created the mobile app Emojify, which allows you to represent any image in the world in the form of these icons.
Emojify interacts with the camera on iPhone mobile phones, as well as pictures found on the Internet or downloaded to a smartphone from a computer. Having received the image the user needs, this application breaks it down into the simplest structural elements and turns each of them into a smiley or some other pictogram, which, according to the algorithm, is most suitable in this case in terms of its size, shape, color and shade.
Emojify allows you to share the final images through social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and others. Moreover, this program can work with photos with a resolution of up to 16 megapixels, which gives you the opportunity to even create posters on the walls with it.
