    Abstract

    In a world of connected smart devices where data is easily available, there is an opportunity to enhance existing technology to better adapt towards office workers’ needs. In this work, we explore the idea of how emotion can be one of many data points to be taken into account in a room planning calendar environment. We present Emoti-Office, a system that (1) collects emotional and contextual data in an office setting, (2) considers how to use this data and (3) how to link emotions with the desired output of a room suggestion or work environment to be reserved and used. Emoti-Office contributes to the field of office working research and development by proposing a context-aware and adaptive design which uses emotions to improve office workers’ environment by adapting to their needs.
