z Hints for better capturing of smiles
1Do not cover the eyes with the bangs.
2Try to orient the face in front of the camera and be as level as
possible. The detection rate is higher when the eyes are
narrowed.
3Give a clear smile with an open mouth. The smile is easier to
detect when the teeth are showing.
