We pioneer technologies that help measure and communicate affective information such as emotion, attention, and motivation. Our primary interest is in helping people who face challenges in these areas, especially people with nonverbal learning disabilities or autism diagnoses. The same technology also has applications in medical research, health/fitness behavior change, learning technologies, robotics, customer experience measurement, call centers, customer service, and more. We work on many platforms, including but not limited to, wearable sensors, mobile devices or cell phones, and robots.
