Abstract :
A smart sensing system, which would help in detecting human emotions based on information from physiological sensors, is designed and developed. Heart rate sensor, galvanic skin response sensor and skin temperature sensor will continuously monitor the physiological parameters. The amplified and filtered signals from the sensors are then processed by a microcontroller and the results are displayed on a computer screen. The partial developed system has shown good results in monitoring the physiological parameters.
