Abstract
Mental state analysis uses sporadic collection of affect data within a vehicle. Mental state data of a vehicle occupant is collected within a vehicle on an intermittent basis. The mental state data includes facial image data and the facial image data is collected intermittently across a plurality of devices within the vehicle. The mental state data further includes audio information. Processors are used to interpolate mental state data in between the collecting which is intermittent. Analysis of the mental state data is obtained on the vehicle occupant, where the analysis of the mental state data includes analyzing the facial image data. An output is rendered based on the analysis of the mental state data. The rendering includes communicating by a virtual assistant, communicating with a navigation component, and manipulating the vehicle. The mental state data is translated into an emoji.
