Apparatus and method for inducing emotions

摘要

The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for inducing emotions. A primary object of the present invention is to accurately induce an emotion desired by a user by feedbacking biosignals from the user and inducing a desired emotion in accordance with the fedback biosignals. The object of the invention can be achieved by allowing the user to select the desired emotion, outputting physical signals for stimulating the user's body based on an emotion induction protocol capable of inducing the selected emotion, extracting bioparameters from the biosignals detected from the user's body before and after the output of the physical signals for stimulating the user's body, comparing increase/decrease patterns of the extracted respective bioparameters with increase/decrease patterns of bioparameter change models for the emotional state desired by the user, and controlling the emotion induction protocol based on comparative results.
