Creating the Mood: Design for a Cognitive Meeting Room

Published: 18 April 2015 Publication History

Abstract

Mood affects the decisions we make and our attitudes toward work and the people with whom we work. The availability of peripheral and focal information also affects the quality and speed of decision-making processes. We are exploring ways to use ambient lighting, music, and images over the course of group meetings in order to understand how these ambient elements affect the quality of meetings, people's attitudes, and the decisions made.
