Summary

Mental health and emotional awareness are a crucial need of the time. Changing lifestyles, stress, and anxiety are seen more commonly and affect many adults in the United States and other countries. Primary aim of this study is to identify the bio-physiological data that is corrected emotions of a person in support of EMO-001 device research.

This study will induce different emotions in the test subjects and collect physiological response signals using Photo Plethysmography (PPG), Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) and Electrocardiogram (ECG) sensors. The sensor data is digitally recorded in a storage bank. The data will be subsequently used to develop supervised and unsupervised classification algorithms.

Emotional states considered in this study are Anger, Amusement, Neutral, Disgust, Sadness, Scared, Surprise and Thrill. These emotions were induced by showing video clips of three to five minutes to the subjects. For each emotion three clips were shown to each subject. Video clips are sourced from movies, TV shows, and real-life recordings. Subjects evaluated each video clip and classify them into perceived emotional ratings.

Data is processed through a series of filter and transformation methods. The transformed data is used to develop and calibrate algorithms that can identify emotions.
