Weekly Progress
In this week, My team has question about sensing that detect about emotion of human. We
shared the topic in this group about how to detect the emotion for example detecting the
movement even body's temperature etc. Next, I will search about sensor that can sensor detects
emotions on internet by knowledge that search is Q Sensor. A new device developed by Affectiva,
based in Waltham, Massachusetts, detects and records physiological signs of stress and excitement
by measuring slight electrical changes in the skin and under the as a sympathetic nervous system
response. This rising moisture makes the skin more electrically conductive. Skin conductance
sensors send a tiny electrical pulse to one point of the skin and measure the strength of that signal
at another point on the skin to detect its conductivity. Q Sensor is worn on a wristband and lets
people keep track of stress during everyday activities. The Q Sensor stores or transmits a wearer's
stress levels throughout the day, giving doctors, caregivers, and patients themselves a new tool for
observing reactions.

Engineering Analysis
Strong Point
- Can detect emotion of person get stress.
Week Point
- I don’t know about working process.
Next Week Job
- I will learn about how to work of sensor that can sensor detects emotions or research about
sensor that can detect about moving of object
