This project seeks to create a prototype immersive human-in-the loop system for sensing and responding to human emotions and behaviors. It aims to develop a prototype system that utilizes human-body based measures like heart, skin temperature, and galvanic skin response aiming to understand how a person is feeling and behaving. Immersive environments are used in various settings including physical therapy for missing limbs, storytelling for children, and design of interactive building displays for architecture professionals. Affective computing researchers have utilized immersive worlds and physiological data to interpret, understand and respond to human emotion related to healthcare decision-making, teaching programming to kids, and hostile negotiation training. This effort utilizes mixed/virtual reality headsets, interactive computing displays, and audio systems with the specific aims of increasing understanding about gestures, words, facial expressions, and other behaviors involved in design-thinking when using an immersive environment, and improving undergraduate and graduate knowledge on use of an immersive human-in-the-loop system.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目旨在创建一个沉浸式人在环路系统的原型，用于感知和响应人类的情感和行为。它的目标是开发一个原型系统，利用基于人体的测量，如心脏、皮肤温度和皮肤电流反应，旨在了解一个人的感觉和行为。沉浸式环境用于各种环境，包括缺失肢体的物理治疗，儿童讲故事，以及为建筑专业人员设计交互式建筑展示。情感计算研究人员利用身临其境的世界和生理数据来解释、理解和回应与医疗决策、儿童编程教学和敌意谈判培训相关的人类情感。这项工作利用混合/虚拟现实耳机、交互式计算显示器和音频系统，具体目标是增加对使用沉浸式环境时设计思维中涉及的手势、文字、面部表情和其他行为的理解，并提高本科生和研究生对沉浸式人在环路系统使用的知识。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
