The head of Dell's latest research and development division
has said company could release a mood-reading application as soon as 2017.
Jai Menon told to BBC that Dell Research was working on the
software for existing brain activity headsets that would correctly identify a
wearer's emotional states.
He also added that he believed such tech had uses in both
office and home.
But some experts are sceptical about the project.
"I think the potential for these things is
astronomical, but we've been told this technology has been five years away for
decades," said Dr Bernie Hogan, a human-computer interaction expert from
the University of Oxford.
