Wearables for Emotion Capture

None

Groups

We are exploring the use of wearable objects for capturing emotion. When the user experiences a particular emotion, she initiates the wearable object to generate unique haptic sensations that come to be associated with that particular emotion. We explore the use of these haptic-emotion capture devices triggered by natural gestures such as the knee-slapping funny gesture and the congratulatory high-five gesture.
