Research project from Eirini Malliaraki illustrates ideas for drone programming, from gesture to emotion recognition:
1-month graduate project // Royal College of Art & Imperial College// May 2017
Taking inspiration from the interaction between falconers and their birds of prey, as well as from common daily gestures, cybernetics, dance, and robotics, several themes were explored, namely:
- a gesture-based interaction scheme that attempts to create a more intuitive and natural way to communicate with aerial robots
- ways in which aerial robots can become more autonomous by interpreting their environment in richer ways
- ways in which they can communicate their intentions and give feedback
- ways in which an aerial robot can understand and react to human emotions and eventually influence our behaviour

I had an interesting shower thought while I was considering making and expression/emotion chart of my ocs. It was about fear in animals, but what made it so interesting was that it was about how different it can look in an anthropomorphic character that acts more like a human rather than an animal.
First idea of fear was a small spook. Rustling bushes, a snapped twig, a bump in the night. You jump and quickly scan your surroundings. Your nostrils are flared, ears perked and on a swivel, maybe your eyes are wide open to take in all you can see. The fear isn't necessarily written on your face, but the signs are there if you're looking closely. Majority of the emotion is internal as your body evaluates the situation. What can you see? (Your eyes aren't focused on a specific spot. They are either scanning around, or unfocused as you try to pinpoint the source of the sound) What can you hear? (Ears are forward and alert or otherwise moving like satellite dishes to see what else they can hear) What can you smell? (Your nose is giving you extra assistance in trying to figure out what you're dealing with. Sometimes your mouth might be slightly open the help you smell better.)
Second idea was if you actually came face to face with what made the initial scare (And it was more than what you could handle). You come face to face with the thing, but here is where it gets interesting. In the wild, animals are presented with two options. Fight, if you could and it would nearly guarantee your survival. Or flight, the other option if you couldn't fight back. When it comes to humans though, we have a third option: Freeze. This absolutely is off the table for animals, because if you fight back or run you have a chance of living to see tomorrow. Freeze in place and you're dead where you stand. You'd feel your heart racing, it pumping adrenaline while your body tries to get you to move, to do ANYTHING. But your mind is frozen at the sight in front of you. Your ears are pinned to your head, your eyes are wide with shrunken pupils, you are trying to shrink away, but what good is that if you're rooted to the ground?
(And a quick expose on how I feel about "vents" as a way of dealing with emotions. Because I'm a nerd.)
(Don't worry, I feel much better now! ;D )
Does anyone else have trouble saying no? Even when your plate is full?
Cause you're the helpful one. You're reliable. You are always there for people.
And people like you for that. So, you keep on helping. Even when it's too much.
I just need to set better boundaries for myself. But to be honest, it felt good to just get my feelings out in a drawing. It actually made me feel much better. Something about making art when I'm sad or angry does wonders. I get caught up in it and am happy with the final product. So, then I'm happy, distracted, and thinking clearer. And then, once I'm in a better head space, I can look at my problems a little better and address what needs to be done.
In this case, learning to say no. And that's something only I can change. So, no use wallowing in self-pity about it.
I encourage you to do things you enjoy when you're upset. It usually will help get your mind off of whatever's bugging you. But when making vents, just make sure not to obsess over that feeling for long. If making art about it or writing it out is just making you dwell on your problem more than that's not a healthy solution. Which, is why I almost hesitate posting this. Art helped me get my feelings out, but it might not be the solution for everyone.
So, I guess this post is just to say, you can make something you are proud of out of your pain and hurt, just make sure that what you're making isn't dragging you further down. Anger and sadness are human emotions, and it's normal to feel them, but try not to dwell on them for too long. Trust me, that's no fun. Feel them, but then know that that is not all there is. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. God has you in the palm of His hand, and he will guide you through this life.
Emotion Analysis is a widely used in many industries. Companies providing online services use it to analyse customer feedback. In clinical investigation, it is used to predict the state of the patients. In Human Resources Departments, it is used for application like attrition prediction, etc. In Insurance industry, it is used for detecting fraud. And there are many more use cases for emotion…
