Pucker up for a kiss … with your phone that is.
As part of a new advertising partnership, Google and Burberry teamed up to create “Burberry Kisses,” a digital platform that allows users to send virtual kisses to anyone in the world. Google’s Art, Copy and Code project designed and executed the project, the company announced Wednesday.
Users can log onto kisses.burberry.com and pucker up to their webcam. Then, the site will detect the outline of their lips, which they can then dress up in any Burberry lipstick color. For those looking to send smooches using their smart phones or tablets, users can actually kiss their screens — Google recommends cleaning it off first — and a lip outline will be taken from there.
Once the digital lips are detected, users can write a short message to the recipient and send it to someone using either connections on Google Plus or their email address. Watch the message fly across the screen to the receiver via a 3-D landscape.
And smoochers don’t have to worry about kissing and telling — all kisses remain private.
