It may be that I'm bored at work, but I think I may have come up with a very frivolous, yet ingenious method of entertaining office workers.
Cameras on the walls that track facial movement and use software algorithms to capture footage whenever someone yawns and then uses various heuristic routines to match the mouth and lip movemement to loudly sung opera / rock / metal - whatever is deemed appropriate - you could even factor in the extent of eye screwing up or arm / stretch movement in as a factor to determine the genre and / or ferocity.
Once synched, the finished footage of colleague yawning, looking very much like they are going for it with a hi-octane vocal performance, is played on monitors all over the building, much to the amusement and awe of everyone else.
Be honest with me, should I start trying to patent this?
