Japanese AffectPhone Concept Conveys Emotions Through Heat
-
Temperature-sensing accelerometer are possible, but Japanese researchers at the Rekimoto Lab have taken it a step further with their AffectPhone project, which monitors Galvanic Skin Response for conveying emotions through an iPhone.
Sensors on the sides and back of the phone would allow the user holding the phone to feel heat or coolness depending on the emotions of the other person on the line. Both people having the conversation would need sensors on their phones, to measure the electrical resistance on one, and receive it on another.
A video below shows it in action, however as it's in Japanese you won't get much out of the demo admittedly. I'd recommend checking out Rekimoto Lab's cat@log project video as well—it's the future for cat-owners, I swear. [Rekimoto Lab via Recombu]

In todays, computer-centered society, designing interactive media has emerged as a new profession. Interactive design is often associated with spread of computers as a communication and interaction tool. However, interactive design has been a staple of artists and designers for many centuries. We present a historical perspective upon interactive design and point out the close relationship of this field with different fields of art and design. We argue that interactive media design is a distinct and evolving field and that it is imperative to teach it as such. In this paper, we have adopted this perspective and detailed a new four-year under-graduate curriculum on interactive media design education. This curriculum stresses the various components of interactive media design and its close relationship with computer science. art and design - currculum design - interactive mediaThis revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
