1. SEPICS PROGRAM PART 2 Implementation of an emotional detection module. 1

2. C ONTENT Recap of internships project Modification to development plan Progress report Development plan Conclusion 2

3. 1. R ECAP OF I NTERNSHIPS P ROJECT 3

4. R ECAP OF I NTERNSHIPS P ROJECT 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

5. R ECAP OF I NTERNSHIPS P ROJECT Work complete previous to this presentation: Very basic interface that could simply connect to the encoder. 5

11. P ROGRESS R EPORT Read physiological signals 11

12. P ROGRESS R EPORT Recording to the log file 12

13. P ROGRESS R EPORT 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 13

14. 4. D EVELOPMENT P LAN 14

15. D EVELOPMENT P LAN Compute HR from BVP Compute baseline values for each Further functionality to the dashboard Test readings against Thought Technology software 15

16. 5. C ONCLUSION 16

17. C ONCLUSION 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

18. C ONCLUSION - T ECHNICALLY 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

19. C ONCLUSION - P ERSONALLY 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
