Empact

Empact is an intelligent video conferencing app which recognises emotions of users in real time. These emotions' data are sent to the speaker and displayed in the form of a chart. The speaker can then extract important insights from these charts and receive constructive feedback. This will help the speaker to improve content and help users get personalised attention too.

• Clone the repo
• npm install to install API dependencies and npm start to start the server API's.
