Fit or Fugly? Mobile app uses maths to determine attractiveness

November 26, 2010

Fit or Fugly, an app which measures how attractive a face actually is empirically with math and Fibonacci’s Golden Ratio, has releaunched with a new social network attached.

The app was developed by Ted Nash, founder of iPhone app marketing agency Venevi Enterprises.
It utilizes face mapping and recognition algorithms paired with fully automatic face detection and anchor point plotting to calculate whether a face in a photo is attractive or ugly.
Users get the result depending on the symmetry of key features such as eyes, ears, chin, nose and mouth.
A newly integrated social network allows users to view and meet other people via www.fitorfugly.com as well as rate their own pictures. The new Fit or Fugly design also makes it look more professional and this gives people the feeling that this is a brand new app.
Ted Nash, Founder of Venevi Enterprises , said: “I am very pleased to have finally released an updated version of Fit or Fugly, we have been developing the equations behind it, mapping technology and full automatic facial recognition for over six months. To have finally cracked the problems we faced during development and to have implemented the new technology into the app is a great feeling.
“The most important part is the fact that we have found the perfect balance between ‘science’ and ‘fun’ which is why this application is really appealing – some people take it seriously, whilst others can see the funny side!”
The app is available for download at: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fit-or-fugly/id334463754?mt=8
