Affectiva is on a mission to humanize technology. An MIT Media Lab spin-off, Affectiva created and defined the Emotion AI category. Built on deep learning, computer vision, speech science and massive amounts of real-world data (over 9 million face videos analyzed in 90 countries), Affectiva’s technology can detect nuanced human emotions, complex cognitive states, activities, interactions, and objects people use. In automotive, Affectiva’s in-cabin sensing AI is enabling leading car manufacturers, fleet managers and ridesharing companies to build next-generation mobility that adapts to complex human states for enhanced safety and personalized transportation experiences.
