"The MELO Bubble Ring captures unconscious tactile behaviors, such as pressing and fidgeting, which often occur during moments of stress or concentration, reflecting underlying emotional states."
"By transforming habitual movement into an interface, the ring allows for passive data collection, enabling users to engage with their emotional states without interrupting their daily routines."
"The system organizes collected data into defined emotional states like overwhelmed, tense, calm, and relaxed, prioritizing clarity and usability in its digital interface."
"Real-time feedback and suggested responses, such as breathing exercises, are presented within a simplified visual system, extending the function of the ring into a broader emotional ecosystem."
MELO Bubble Ring, designed by Shuting Jiang, translates unconscious gestures into measurable emotional data, focusing on stress. It captures repetitive actions like pressing and fidgeting, which reflect emotional states. The ring records these behaviors passively, allowing continuous data collection without disrupting daily activities. It features a force-sensitive resistor and a photoplethysmography sensor to monitor interactions and heart rate variability. The collected data is organized into emotional states and presented through a mobile app, offering real-time feedback and suggested responses to enhance emotional awareness.
