* Benefits of smiling
Smiling not only makes someone look better, but also helps reduce stress, lift moods, boost positivity, and can even function as a weak pain reliever. Even if the smile is fake, the mere act of smiling can have the same positive effects.

When a person smiles neuropeptides get released by the brain alongside other neurotransmitters (dopamine, endorphins) most of which reduce stress and have many other positive effects.

* Technology
The application, Smile Smart, is one that opens the camera and uses AI image analysis with data from the camera to determine whether or not the user is smiling and records that data. The system needs to be able to record user data in a local space. Data is not used for any other purpose other than to give the user their smile statistics.
