Abstract
This specification describes technologies for mental state measurement using sensor data obtained from sensors attached to objects. One embodiment is a method that includes receiving sensor data from sensors attached to non-wearable objects. The first and second attachable sensors each include an output and a sensor. The method further includes determining mental state data from the sensor data; and causing to be displayed a representation of a mental state based on the mental state data. The method can further include: deriving an action metric from the mental state data; comparing the action metric to a threshold; automatically taking an action when the action metric exceeds the threshold; collecting post action sensor data; determining post action mental state data based at least in part on the post action sensor data; and forwarding the post action mental state data for display of a representation of a mental state.
