This research introduces a novel approach to emotional intelligence by analyzing micro-gestures—unconscious body movements that reveal inner feelings rather than intentional communication.

• Develops specialized techniques for detecting and interpreting unintentional micro-gestures
• Creates identity-free emotional analysis that respects privacy
• Demonstrates applications in security contexts for deception detection
• Establishes a foundation for emotion-aware AI systems

For security professionals, this technology offers a breakthrough in deception detection during interviews or screenings without relying on facial recognition, providing a more ethical approach to behavioral analysis.
