American computer software maker Microsoft has developed a prototype of a smart scarf that can be used to manage users’ emotional states and interpret the emotions of others.

“Swarm” aims at universal design and uses modular action components to adapt to the wearer’s sensory abilities and preferences. At the same time, the scarf’s appearance is presented in a fashionable way to relieve the stiff instrument feel.

Microsoft said that imagine a situation where someone or everyone uses a scarf as a tool, wearing a biosensor, such as a heartbeat monitor, and sending data to the scarf via Bluetooth.

Microsoft stated that “devices for mood measurement (using signals such as heart rate and perspiration) are becoming cheaper and more reliable, and emerging products such as smart watches have begun to integrate heart rate monitoring (such as the Samsung Galaxy Fit series) , within the next few years, wearable monitors, such as multi-purpose smart watches or special devices (like Spire) will be as ubiquitous as fitness bands today.”

Indeed, the data recorded by the Swarm sensor reflects the body’s emotional signs and can be transmitted to a smartphone or computer via Bluetooth, which can ultimately be interpreted and analyzed by a doctor.

The Microsoft report states: Due to the impact of certain disabilities, many people have difficulties in recognizing emotions, whether their own or those of others, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Therefore, it was inspired by laser-cut garments, which include interchangeable heat-generating modules connected by metal buckles, made of industrial felt cloth and taffeta cloth with conductive copper, and are designed to relieve anxiety. Disturbed patients such as autistic patients. This is achieved by embedding tactile sensing, cooling and air compression actuation components into the garment.

A Microsoft spokesperson said the research prototype has evolved into “another case of affective computing.”

This smart scarf was developed by the Microsoft R&D team, led by Michele Williams, who graduated from the University of Maryland.
