Abstract

Many findings in both psychology and affective computing areas have reshaped the scientific understanding of human’s mental states. Mental states have been found to be one of the key factors that contribute to the quality of HCI. Currently, a number of experiments in affective computing and HCI areas are being conducted; the studies mainly focus on the development of a novel computer system called the mind reading computer. The mind reading computer, genuinely, can read people’s minds and can react to different emotions or commands. Researchers believe that, in the future, mind reading computer can be applied to many disciplines in the real world and can improve the quality of HCI. This exploratory research provides comprehensive insights into the background, models and implementation of this model. To accomplish that, this research will be based on secondary data sources and will mainly focus on its affect on individuals as the main end-users.
