Humanizing Technology With Emotional Intelligence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798369370124)

In an era where technology permeates every aspect of our lives, the imperative for sentient systems has never been greater. This necessity stems from the recognition that effective human-computer interaction (HCI) transcends mere transactional exchanges, aspiring instead to foster connections that are as nuanced and empathetic as those between humans. Emotional intelligence in computing systems, therefore, is not a luxury but a prerequisite for creating technologies that enhance, rather than hinder, our daily lives. Affective computing, the interdisciplinary domain at the heart of this endeavor, bridges the gap between human emotional experience and computational technology, aiming to imbue machines with the ability to detect, interpret, and respond to human emotions. Humanizing Technology With Emotional Intelligence delves into the why and how of incorporating emotional intelligence into computing systems. The book provides a comprehensive overview of both the theoretical foundations and the practical applications of affective computing in HCI. Covering topics such as automotive safety, holistic student development, and social robotics, this book is an excellent resource for academicians, researchers, graduate and postgraduate students, software developers, product managers, and more.
