DETECTION OF AND INTERACTION USING MENTAL STATES

摘要

A method of detecting a mental state includes receiving, in a processor, bio-signals of a subject from one or more bio-signal detectors, and determining in the processor whether the bio-signals represent the presence of a particular mental state in the subject. A method of using the detected mental state includes receiving, in a processor, a signal representing whether a mental state is present in the subject. The mental state can be a non-deliberative mental state, such as an emotion, preference or sensation. A processor can configured perform the methods, and a computer program product, tangibly stored on machine readable medium can have instructions operable to cause a processor to perform the methods.
