Described herein are systems and methods for detecting a stress level of a user. In one embodiment, a system includes an inward-facing head-mounted thermal camera (CAM) and a computer. CAM takes thermal measurements of a region on a periorbital area (TH ROI1 ) of the user. The computer generates feature values based on TH ROI1 , and utilizes a model to detect the stress level based on the feature values. The model was trained based on: previous TH ROI1 taken while the user was under elevated stress, and other previous TH ROI1 taken while the user was not under elevated stress. Some embodiments may utilize additional thermal cameras that take thermal measurements of other regions on the face, which may be utilized to detect the stress level. |
