132050Feasibility of emotion detection via facial muscle activity sensors embedded in glasses frame - FEDEm-GlassesClosedFeasibility StudiesInnovate UKWe have developed novel, miniaturised muscle activity sensors that work without the need for invasive procedures. We aim to integrate these into a glasses frame. In combination with a six-axis motion sensor (gyroscope and accelerometer) we want to demonstrate: -Detection of corrugator (frown) muscle activity, without drawbacks of EMG (skin preparation, obtrusive caps) -Accurate detection of head position, without drawbacks of remote cameras (occlusion, reference objects) -Gesture recognition through a combination of the above -Assessment of emotional state, through head position and corrugator response to IAPS images -Performance compared to conventional EMG technology This work could lead to gesture activated devices, enhanced software that detects user engagement and entertainment that detects emotional state of the user.
