Computer and electronic enthusiasts searching for a
project to keep them busy this weekend, may be interested in a new device
called EmotiGlass, that allows a computer to change a user’s emotional
perception of reality.
All augmented reality devices so far provide an interactive
experience of the real-world environment that is enhanced by computer-generated
perceptual information. In contrast, the EmotiGlass project explores ways in
which a computer can modulate the user’s EMOTIONAL perception of reality. Our
projects aims to develop the first “Modulated-Emotion Reality” device.
EmotiGlass enables completely new applications in the field of augmented
reality in which emotional biases can be manipulated by computer applications.
Additionally, EmotiGlass has therapeutic applications as an aid to help control
stress and anxiety. “
