Driving companions

=== Project short description ===


The objective of this thesis is to develop a framework (hw/sw) that is used to recognize emotion while driving. In Automotive field there is an increasing interest for more trustable and confortable cars. For this reason we want to develop a system that is able to recognize emotion in a car environment. The purpose could be to advise in the case of high stress or to control the car to make the drive feel better.

=== Laboratory work and risk analysis ===

Laboratory work for this project will be mainly performed at AIRLab/Lambrate. It will include electrical and electronic activity. Potentially risky activities are the following:
* Use of soldering iron. Standard safety measures described in [http://airlab.elet.polimi.it/index.php/airlab/content/download/461/4110/file/documento_valutazione_rischi_AIRLab.pdf Safety norms] will be followed.
* Use of high-voltage circuits. Special gloves and a current limiter will be used.
* Robot testing.  Standard safety measures described in [http://airlab.elet.polimi.it/index.php/airlab/content/download/461/4110/file/documento_valutazione_rischi_AIRLab.pdf Safety norms] will be followed.
* Use of a modified (human-guided) golf cart. We will use the cart only in open-air environments.
