Abstract

A set of therapeutic control required for persons suffering from or expected to suffer from limitations in daily living activities is called rehabilitation which can restore or improve the functional ability in a stipulated time. These abilities can be from the physical aspect, can be from mental aspect and can be from cognitive perspective also. During human interaction, sensation or emotion plays a major role. To collect this sensation, the most important work is to implement an emotion collection system recording the signal accurately. The present chapter discusses all the implemented methodologies and the corresponding applications. The first one is concerned with a set of recommendations to overcome the shortcomings of the existing works and the second one is about a detailed analysis of the steps to be performed for achieving proper rehabilitative aid for future research in this concerned area.
