We've talked before how Internet companies like Google and social media sites like Facebook use the sites you visit and the subjects you like to help advertisers reach you.
It's called data mining.
One thing that's new, technology that allows some computers to track your emotions while you're online.
One thing that's not new, the privacy concerns.
This technology wants to know what you feel
At Affectiva, we develop emotionally intelligent computers.
So we use technology that can track your facial expressions and we map that into a number of emotional states.
Essentially what the computer is doing is tracking your main feature points, like your eyes, your mouth, your eyebrows.
So your technology, how can it know what I'm feeling?
What is it looking for?
We've amassed the world's largest emotion data repository, about seven billion emotion data points.
We've collected videos from over 75 countries of people responding to digital content and we use that to train the computer to detect all sorts of different expressions, from enjoyment to confusion, concentration.
