The method is for using a virtual face (10, 300) or body (206). The virtual face or body is provided on a screen (9) associated with a computer system (11) having a cursor (8). A user (7) manipulates the virtual face or body with the cursor (8) to show a facial expression (54, 60, 62, 64, 66, 68, 212, 214, 216). The communication device (11) determines coordinates of the facial expression and frequency ranges of vocal cords or glottis. The communication device searches for facial expression coordinates in a database (52) to match the coordinates and frequency ranges. A word or phrase is identified that is associated with the identified facial expression coordinates. The screen (9) displays the word to the user (7). The user may also feed a word to the computer system that displays the facial expression associated with the word. |
