It looks like Snapchat is beyond eroticism by pi ching hsu ebook pdfworking on a new feature that uses facial recognition to automatically create Bitmoji.
A new patent application made public Thursday, but filed by the company last March, describes a process that uses facial recognition tech for "automated avatar generation."

The filing doesn't specifically name Bitmoji or any of Snapchat's features for that matter, but it does make one reference early on to "animated and cartoon image" avatars. So it doesn't seem like much of a stretch at all to imagine that Snapchat's popular avatar feature is the target of this particular patent. We've reached out to Snapchat for more information about the facial recognition feature.
The filing notes that there are many existing services that attempt to automate avatar creation already. What sets Snapchat's tech apart, according to the company, is that the process they describe is entirely automated, thanks to facial recognition.
However, it sounds like users would still be able to make their own tweaks after the process.
"After generating the avatar, the application may present buttons enabling the user to save the avatar, manipulate or customize the avatar, generate another avatar, and generate additional graphics using the avatar," the patent says.
"The additional graphics may include digital stickers, emojis, animated bitmap images, and other graphics which may be shared with other users by including the graphics in messages or other communications between client devices."
