Identification of human emotion in my project
According to Abhay Burande, the human emotions can be classified as primary, secondary and tertiary emotions. The primary emotions are:
1. Fear
2. Joy
3. Love
4. Sadness
5. Surprise
6. Anger
I am planning to explore joy, sadness and surprise and combine them into my designing machine.
Joy
Joy or happiness has shades of enjoyment, satisfaction and pleasure. There is a sense of well-being, inner peace, love, safety and contentment. There is an existence of both, positive thinking and positive activities.
The first secondary emotion is “cheerfulness”. This comprises of a myriad of tertiary emotions like:
Amusement
Ecstasy
Gaiety
Euphoria
Bliss
Elation
Delight
Happiness
Jubilation
Sadness
Sadness is necessarily related to a feeling of loss and disadvantage. If this feeling drowns the individual it may lead to a state of depression. When a person can be observed to be quiet, less energetic and withdrawn to himself it may be inferred that sadness exists. Such an individual usually has a sloping body, stuck out lips and a downcast appearance of the head.
Directly related to sadness, the following tertiary emotions can be displayed:
Depression
Unhappiness
Misery
Melancholy
Gloom
Despair
Surprise
Surprise means the showing up of an unexpected result. When one experiences surprise, it is accompanied by raising of the eyebrows, horizontal lines on the forehead, open mouth, stretched skin below the eyebrows and wide open eyelids. Depending on the intensity, the mouth may not open, but only the jaw may drop. A momentary raise in the eyebrows is the most common evidence of surprise.
There are related tertiary emotions like:
Astonishment
Amazement
During the interactive period between machine and user, my human-like machine will present three emotions in different moments:
Meeting —– Surprise
Face to face — Happiness;
Say goodbye — Depression.
