This project developed a GUI in python to operate the Personal Emotional Augmented Controlled Environment or PEACE room designed in previous MQPs, as well as designed and performed experiments using the room. The PEACE room utilized an EEG, an O2 Ring, a webcam, and the Positive And Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) survey to measure how different configurations of space, sound, and light affects stress levels. The results from these experiments were then used to create a design concept for “Heaven's Cloud”, a mixed use eight story building consisting of retail, residential, and office spaces.
