With such intent, individuals passionate about change have come in different shapes and sizes as well as forms.

The movement was significantly organized by the Students of Democratic Society (SDS).

SMART EMOTION BASED SYSTEM FOR MUSIC Abstract— This project presents a method to automatically detect emotional duality and mixed emotional experience using Linux based system. Co-ordinates, distance and movement of tracked points were used to create features from visual input that captured facial expressions, head, face gestures and face movement. Spectral features, prosodic features were extracted using the camera. Espeak and Pyttsx and Face API was used for calculation of features. A combined feature vector was created by feature level fusion and cascade classifier was used for emotion detection. Live participants and actions are to be used for recording simultaneous mixed emotional experience. As per calculated result system will play songs and display books list. Index Terms— Smart Emotion, Face Detection, Emotion Prediction, OpenCV. INTRODUCTION Emotion recognition has important applications in the field of medicine, education, marketing, security and surveillance. Machines can enhance the human- computer interaction by accurately identifying human emotions and responding to those emotions. Available research has mainly examined automatic recognition of a single emotion. But psychology as well as behavioural science studies have shown…
Technology in the Defence Department Military services are faced by insecurities and autonomous cars are the solution. The military service requires machines that do not require active personal involvement and the fact that autonomous cars do not require personal involvement are a real deal. [1]Autonomous cars are more affordable and attainable due to technological advancement in energy, navigation, and communication. The autonomous car gives an option to choose whether to assign a driver and the worries of commanders are significantly reduced by the fact that the only concern is offering protection to the leaders of the convoy. A convoy of autonomous cars is comprised of a fleet of self-driven vehicles led by a person-driven car. The idea of autonomous vehicles comes with a promise of increasing speed, accuracy and intelligence of logistic delivery. In the area of protection, autonomous cars reduce the number of soldiers and contract drivers put in harm’s way. The workforce spared ensures availability when urgently required. The autonomous cars will be potentially faster, carrying more payload and into more dangerous areas in support of army…
