AËR - The Emotional Being

Amrita Dutt

Let’s face it. Emotions are complex and let's remove this taboo off of women which says only we are complicated. Human Beings are an intricate work of art and we need apps (not just books) to understand us better. And understanding people better gives clarity and relief.

AËR is a digital tool to read the human self through emotions felt. With AI learning developing each day, we aspire to read most complex emotions like love and melancholy.

A lot of our behaviour and actions are based on how we feel. A true picture of our emotions can be read through scientific data collected from wearable technologies and other significant monitoring ways like online activity, tone analysis, galvanic skin response (gsr), etc. It not only gives the users an accurate reading of their emotions but also gives a full control of their actions.

Disclaimer: This was a project accomplished by a group of three designers.
My fellow designers were : Elisa Roldán (eselisa.com) and Ruben Babu (https://rubenuxd.com/)

This platform is basically a human emotions mirror which helps you understand your own emotional behaviour.
