ABSTRACT
Today’s wearables … might listen to you talk, watch your gestures, and sense changes in your heart rate, blood pressure, and electrodermal response … emotion modulates not just autonomic nervous system activity, but the whole body—how it moves, speaks, gestures; almost any bodily signal might be analyzed for clues to the wearer’s affective state. Signals that currently require physical contact to sense, such as electromyogram and skin conductivity, are especially well-suited to wearable technology.
