RECAP OF INTERNSHIPS PROJECT

Design and develop an emotional detection

system that detects in real time the emotional

state of the user.

Once developed it is to be integrated into an

intelligent tutoring system (ITS).

Allow for control and regulation of users emotion

to foster optimum learning conditions. 4

RECAP OF INTERNSHIPS PROJECT

Work complete previous to this presentation: Very basic interface that could simply connect to

the encoder.

PROGRESS REPORT

Dashboard development: The dashboard was to be a graphical user control Display the emotional state via iconic faces

(Lang’s model) Display negative and target regions (Russell’s

model) Display BVP, SC, HR and baseline value

Compute HR from BVP

Compute baseline values for each

Further functionality to the dashboard

Test readings against Thought Technology

CONCLUSION

Overall a wonderful and unforgettable

experience

SEPICS has allowed for me to further my

academic knowledge in intelligent computer

systems

Learnt a lot from my work and my time spent

here both technically and personally.

17

CONCLUSION - TECHNICALLY

A chance to work on a brand new topic

Learn about ITS and emotional intelligence

Work with new equipment of Thought

Technology

Further my knowledge of C++

First time use of MFC and developing

graphical interfaces for C++18

CONCLUSION - PERSONALLY

Integrate a laboratory of research and

collaborate with the laboratory team.

Enhance my programming skills, in particular

C++

Manage my time and organisation skills more

efficiently – working towards deadlines etc

Meet new people and experience new culture

and lifestyle 19
