| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We herein proposed a method for manipulating people’s emotional experiences using a pseudo bodily response that can reproduce the sensation of crying. We developed an eyeglasses-style wearable device, which we call Teardrop glasses that can apply drops of water onto the regions near the inner corners of the wearer’s eyes at a controlled rate. A user study showed that the pseudo tears caused the participants wearing the glasses to be sad and also caused other participants around them to be sad. We conclude from the results of this study that our minds can be manipulated not only by pseudo changes of our own bodily responses but also by the observation of pseudo changes in other people’s emotional expressions. Moreover, non-wearers were more emotionally influenced by the pseudo tears than wearers. Their happiness rating was significantly lowest when the pseudo tears were presented. These findings contribute to the design interactions between humans and their minds using technology.
