Product Overview
Affective computing is the development of a system and device, which includes software and hardware that can
recognize, process, interpret, and simulate human behavior. It is a combination of various fields such as
computer science, psychology and cognitive science. Affective computing helps in stimulating empathy in
computers. The machine should interpret the emotional state of humans and adapt its behavior to them,
thereby giving an appropriate response to those emotions. Affective computing has its theoretical foundation
on psychology and neuroscience.
Affective computing helps computers and other
electronic devices to understand the human
needs and give an interactive and enhanced
experience to humans.
Machines till now did what humans wanted via
physical
command.
With
emerging
Artificial
Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT)
technologies coupled with affective computing,
machines can predict in real time what humans
might need and can prompt suggestions and
take proactive measures to satisfy the human
needs.
