Emotion Aware Robot by Emotion Estimation Using Biological Sensors

Abstract

Emotion aware technologies have been very attractive topic these days to understand the internal state of the human through some methods and sensors. We consider if we apply the human's emotional state for nursing/care and communication robots, it would be possible to increases QoL through emotion satisfactory communications through these artificial devices. There are various technologies that required for achieving the purpose. In this discussion, we will introduce an approach that collects biological information using EEG, and heartbeat sensors and estimates emotion with some models to apply it for the robot. There are challenging topics to decide the behavior responsively. The works would be one of the new fields of the emotion aware computing applications.
