Abstract
Towards building new, friendlier human-computer interaction and multimedia interactive services systems, new computer techniques are applied which aim at revealing information about the affective state, cognitive activity, personality, intention and psychological state of a person. In this paper we conduct a survey on systems which attempt to recognize human emotion from body movements and/or hand/arm gestures. Our survey shows that, although there are a lot of researches on human tracking, human motion analysis and gesture analysis, there are not many researches regarding emotion recognition from body movements and gestures. Moreover, there is a lack of databases depicting human movements and/or hand gestures in different states of emotions.
