SEAT

Role of the WearLab

The main tasks from the WearLab will be the design of a body/chair based multi-sensor network, textile integration of sensors and signal conditioning circuits. This includes exploration of feature extraction methods, implementation of classification tools and experimental validation of tools and devices. Therefore a new SEAT-laboratory is going to be build up, where appropriate physiological and psychological measurements are going to be performed.

One possibility to assess the physical comfort of the passenger consists in incorporating pressure sensors into the seat. However, passenger's mood and emotions strongly influence their perception of comfort. We therefore plan to measure passenger's emotion by using appropriate sensors, including e.g. microphones, cameras and non-obtrusive physiological sensors.
