A first-of-its-kind AI-powered mood detector for pizzas

By IANSlifeNew Delhi, May 18 (IANSlife) Pizza Hut, installs a one-of-its-kind AI-powered mood detector device that studies facial cues and expressions of customers and gives them recommendations for pizzas that best match their moods with "Your Mood, Your Pizza" campaign.

The brand becomes the first-ever QSR brand to use the power of AI to understand the mood of its consumers to help them choose what they crave.

This device is installed in select restaurants across Delhi, Lucknow, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and Chennai.The mood detector uses innovative technology that offers a unique and personalised ordering experience.

All you need to do is stand in front of the device, look into the screen, and leave it on the detector to calibrate your mood and flash its pizza recommendation before you.The device uses a statistical model that detects facial expressions by analyzing landmarks on the face such as eye movements, smiles, frowns, etc.captured by the camera.The model compares these patterns against a database of hundreds of thousands of publicly available images.

Customers privacy is protected because the AI only stores face patterns as numbers and does not save any images in any format.Aanandita Datta, Chief Marketing Officer, Pizza Hut India said, "At Pizza Hut, we believe that dining is more than just eating - its about the entire experience.

With our new AI-powered mood detector, were taking that experience to the next level by offering personalised pizza recommendations based on our customers moods.Were thrilled to bring this innovative technology to our customers and offer a new and exciting way for them to interact with our brand.
