Global Affective Computing Market Trends:

The Rising Applications of Affective Computing in Industries, including Automotive

As per the World Health Organization (WHO), it is estimated that 20-50 million individuals suffer from fatal injuries in traffic accidents each year. Motorcyclists, pedestrians, and cyclists are among the most at-risk road users, accounting for more than half of all fatalities. Consequently, advanced technologies, including affective computing, are extensively used to develop advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) to minimize road accidents. In addition to this, to react to and track the actions and feelings of passengers and drivers, Eyeris and Affectiva, two of the most prominent technology providers, installed cameras in automobiles. Additionally, driver drowsiness can be monitored via emotional technology. As a result, these advanced technologies are anticipated to augment the market growth in the coming years. For example, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, self-driving cars in the United States are projected to reach 3.5 million by 2025 and 4.5 million by 2030. Also, to incorporate Affectiva's automotive technology into SmartEye's interior sensing solution, the company acquired Affectiva. These insights enable the automakers to improve safety features to meet Euro NCAP standards. Such advancements in the automotive industry are creating opportunities for numerous effective computing solution providers, thereby driving the affective computing market demand. The introduction of biometric applications, such as driver monitoring for autonomous driving and voice and gesture recognition for driver control, is also fueling the global market. For example, Aptiv plc partnered with Affectiva to commercialize enhanced multimodal interior sensing solutions for fleet and OEM customers and improve the mobility experience for future vehicles.

Extensive Research and Development (R&D) Activities for Technologies Utilized in Affective Computing

According to the affective computing market statistics, researchers are conducting numerous projects to develop advanced new gesture and speech recognition solutions. These projects comprise introducing computing devices capable of serving various end-user applications, including in the healthcare and automotive industries. For example, researchers from Michigan University's CSE department identified one of their papers as one of the top five to appear in IEEE Transactions on affective computing. The researchers suggested new approaches for expanding the scope of representations of speech for emotion to boost recognition performance across datasets. Furthermore, research organizations, including MIT, conducted several research projects, including Automatic Stress Recognition in Real-Life Settings and Affective Response to Haptic Signals, among others. The university has a department in the MIT media lab called the Affective Computing Group, which majorly researches new ways of inventing personal technologies and communicating affective and cognitive states for improving self-awareness of affective states, which is further anticipated to increase the investments in the North America over the forecasted period. As such, many Canadian businesses are concentrating on introducing new gesture and speech recognition solutions. The Canadian company GestSure Systems developed a gesture software interface that allowed doctors to access patient records on computers in locations other than sterile operation rooms. Also, the company provided hardware that serves as a USB bridge to interchange MRI and CT data with an already installed hospital PC using Kinect.

Government Policies to Promote the Adoption of Affective Computing Technologies

Government bodies in the Asia Pacific region are launching favorable policies to promote the adoption of speech, gestures, and facial recognition software, which is one of the emerging affective computing market trends. For example, initiatives, such as the UIDAI project in India and the e-KTP project in Indonesia, provided opportunities for the adoption of affective computing in the countries. In line with this, regulatory authorities in India used face recognition technology in the capital city of New Delhi to detect children who had been kidnapped or lost. Furthermore, a workshop titled "Affective Computing and Social Robots in the Rehabilitation of Children with Autism" was organized as a part of the EMBOA project at the Gdansk University of Technology in Poland. Countries, including Turkey, Germany, the UK, and Poland, welcomed more than 40 visitors from the four project partners' nations. The project's participants learned about various subjects, such as social robots, emotion detection, and technology-assisted treatment for autistic children.

Strategic Mergers and Acquisitions and Collaborations

According to the affective computing market report, key companies across the globe are expanding their presence by entering into strategic partnerships and collaborations. For instance, Nuance Communications announced a partnership with SCIENTIA Puerto Rico, Inc. to expand access to Nuance's Dragon Medical One speech recognition solution for the island's physicians and nurses to improve patient outcomes and clinical documentation while minimizing administrative workloads that contribute to clinician burnout. In line with this, according to the affective computing market analysis, Aural Analytics, Inc., a prominent player in clinical-grade speech analytics, announced a partnership with Koneksa, a player in digital biomarker development, to further strengthen its platform and research capabilities using Aural Analytics' technology, Speech Vitals. Moreover, CallMiner, a prominent provider of conversation intelligence to drive business improvement, announced new integrations with Amazon Connect and Genesys Cloud CX, which enabled organizations to gain quick, seamless access to powerful real-time analytics capabilities within existing or future Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) deployments.
