Concept:
Desire for happiness: Everyone has a longing for happiness which is contagious. On one hand such concept can customize a happiness city mapping for the users and help a place to get happiness. On the other hand, it can persuade the users to smile everyday to make their own surroundings a happy place, and in this way, the positive facial expression can have positive mental influence on emotions, making them really feel better.
City Landmark: It should not be the tallest skyscraper, but the place where most people feel happy.
Mapping: It is a 5D Map including dimensions of X, Y, Z, time, and happiness value.
Devices: Portable devices(Raspberry Pi + GPS model + camera) capture pedestrians' facial expressions. A server can receive datas collected by portable devices and generate the city happiness mapping. City happiness mapping can be viewed through apps in mobile devices, helping users to explore the city.
