It can be said that artificial intelligence or artificial intelligence-AI technology is being improved every day. With the help of AI technology, immense potential has been created in robotics technology. The use of robots is increasing in various fields. In addition, scientists are constantly trying to create robots that will be human companions.
Scientists have made an unimaginable innovation in this robotics technology. They claim that robots created in the future will be able to understand human emotions. They will be able to identify emotions by touching human skin. The research paper has been published in the journal 'Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Access' (IEEE Access), one of the open online platforms for scientific research papers.
According to scientists, traditional emotion recognition systems such as facial recognition systems and speech analysis systems have many flaws. For this reason, researchers have conducted experiments on skin conductance to understand a person's emotions. This test measures how well the skin can conduct electricity. It usually changes in response to sweat secretion and nerve activity, which reflects different mental states of a person.
For this, scientists conducted a study on 33 people. They were shown emotionally stimulating videos and at that time the electrical conductance on their skin was measured. The study observed different patterns for different emotions. Among them, the feeling of fear was found to last the longest. At the same time, the feeling of family bonding, mixed feelings of happiness and sadness were observed to be slow. On the other hand, the reaction was observed to fade quickly after watching funny videos.
Scientists hope that it will soon be possible to create powerful technology that will be able to accurately express various emotions, including physiological signals. And using that technology, robots will be created that will not only assist people in their daily tasks but also share in people's happiness and sadness. In addition, it will be by people's side like a friend in their mental turmoil, will provide mental comfort, and will give courage.
However, scientists have expressed concern that there will be some problems if this technology is successful. If the robot starts behaving like a human due to excessive sensitivity, different events may occur, which can cause disaster for humans in particular. Technology experts are not completely ruling out this possibility. Because technology experts are already in a dilemma about the great capabilities of AI. Therefore, scientists expect that no new innovation will pose a threat to human civilization.
