Emotions metter We know that emotional ads are more memorable and generally more successful But how can we reliably measure an ad’s unconscious emotional impact? 2

From Creation to Application Academic Foundations The approach is based on research by scientists from Oxford University, ELTE and Imperial College. Technology was created and developed from scratch by Realeyes (UK) Verified in Russia by NewMR 3

New scalable non-verbal technology Unconcious facial expressions captured and translated into 6 universally accepted emotions via webcam without interrupting the user’s viewing session 4 Powerful diagnostic tool

OUR CASE STUDY Test of 14 video ads for soft drinks broadcast in Russia 6
