Abstract :
Affective computing aims at analyzing users´ affective states. Its applications include edutainment, HCI, and healthcare. Affective states may be conveyed through voice, facial expression, gesturing and physiological representations. This paper presents our attempt to develop a smart camera which can recognize simple head and hand gestures, for healthcare applications.
