In my life, I have never had the habit of "looking in the mirror."

However, my feelings changed when I started to take pictures of myself in remote meetings to adjust the camera's position.

-- or rather, I was astonished.

I realized how unsightly I was on camera.

I was thinking that if I had the technology to process makeup remotely, I could sell it,

I have confirmed that such a thing was developed ten years ago and is now implemented in Zoom (although it seems to be called "filter" instead of "makeup").

Well, that's right. Face digital processing services are the foundation of remote conferencing, aren't they?

To begin with, there is no reason why the technology that allows you to participate in a remote meeting with someone else's face can't be used to process makeup images.

In some Islamic cultures and regions, it is customary not to see the bride's face until the wedding night.

In the future, we may see more and more marriages of a similar form.

I think it would be "possible" to go further and create a new type of marriage called "remote marriage," in which a couple only registers and lives remotely for the rest of their lives.

In Japan, there are no restrictions on the type of marriage, which allows the couple to receive "only" legal benefits such as inheritance, pension benefits, spousal exemption, medical expense deduction, residency status, property division, and pension division.

Conversely, it would be interesting to see how such an approach could be used to disrupt the existing system of exclusively "heterosexual marriage(*).
