Toward Environment-to-Environment (E2E) Affective Sensitive Communication Systems

摘要

In the last decades several efforts have been focused on helping people keeping in touch and communicating from distant environments. Nevertheless, existing devices limit natural human interactions in a number of different ways. Researchers have been working on this direction and new systems allow to communicate in more natural ways. A communication modality which has still not be fully considered is emotions. Emotions are proved to be fundamental for various human cognitive ability and in particular for communications. Indeed, it has been proved that the surrounding emotional information can, sometimes, be more important that the message itself.rnIn this work we present a framework for environment-to-environment communications (E2E) which also take into account emotions to dynamically modify the behavior of the system.
