Shaowei Chu, Huawei Tu · International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction · 2025
In this work, we present an overview of current selfie techniques and state-of-the-art selfie systems that aim to simplify and enhance the experience of capturing excellent selfies. We contribute a comprehensive framework that summarizes the process of selfie interaction, categorizing the diverse techniques employed at each phase of the selfie-capturing procedure. Following our review of selfie techniques, we offer recommendations for the design of selfie cameras, interaction methods, and evaluation criteria for selfie interaction techniques. Our reviews on selfie-related technologies hold the potential to enrich human-computer interaction research in this domain and can serve as a valuable resource for informing marketing strategies for both hardware and software selfie applications.
