Mark Thek is a Southern California entrepreneur who guides Esterline Power Systems as it provides innovative electrical power distribution solutions. His hobbies include a longstanding interest in mathematics and physics. Mark Thek also is working on the book, “The Quantification of Human Emotion.”
Analyzing human emotions through sensors is a topic of current scientific research, with hand vein thermography serving as one promising pathway. This approach involves measuring hand micro-perspirations and sweat, as exhibited by skin temperature patterns. Measurements are undertaken without actually touching the skin through thermograms, or pictorial representations of the hand’s heat radiation patterns.
The infrared camera used picks up minute aspects of temperature distribution changes, with a focus on skin tissue that contains veins and has a temperature gradient. Though this technique is an efficient way to measure emotion, it does suffer from two shortcomings: It is difficult to conduct in uncontrolled environments, where other sources of heat are present, and infrared sensors are very expensive.
