By interpreting an information-rich, individually-tailored physiological context, we can determine the emotional state of a person wearing an Exmocare device.

Emotional information, very simply, can be characterized in two dimensions.

  • Arousal: How excited is the person?
  • Valence: How positive is the person?
  • Emotional implications of arousal and valence
