EmoEar

Interactive Device for Emotion Monitoring

We went through brainstorming to generate creative ideas at the first meeting about our end-of-term project. We made our decision when discussing with our supervising teacher, who voted for a random idea mentioned by me. That is: What if humans have a pair of cat ears and it can react to their feelings?

Main Loop

From detecting the pulse to move the cat ears, several judgments are required, lead to four different modes, which are mode A, B, C, and D. The simplified main loop is as follows.

  • Introduction

    "EmoEar" is a wearable interactive device based on Arduino. It is a cat ear headband that responds to the wearer's heart rate. It can detect the wearer's pulse and display it in realtime through the colors of LED lights and the movement of servos. This project won the third prize in the National College Students 3S IoT Competition in 2022.
