Abstract

Information Systems emotional interface emotion detection emotion responses driving simulator in-car systems affective computing speech recognition
Speech interaction with in-car controls is becoming more commonplace as the interaction is considered to be less distracting to the driver. Cars of today are equipped with speech recognition system to dial phone numbers and to control the cockpit environment. Furthermore satellite navigation systems provide the driver with verbal directions to their destination. The paper extends the speech interaction between driver and car to consider automatic recognition of the emotional state of the driver and appropriate responses by the car to improve the driver mood. The emotion of the driver has been found to influence driving performance and by actively responding to the emotional of the driver the car could improve their driving.
