By detecting and understanding emotions, we can offer more personalized and effective care, which improves both patients and the general experience in health care,” claimed Nihilent Perp.
In the meantime, as part of their MOU, Nihilent will also offer summer internships for MUHS students to expose them to AI in health care. MUHS has more than 600 affiliated colleges that offer health scientific education in the western state of Maharashtra.
The larger trend

In 2021, Social Services Agency Lions Clingers in Singapore worked together with IT developer Opsis to try out an AI-driven emotion analysis software to determine the mental state of seniors.
In addition to emotion detection, new research in Australia showed the use of online therapy to help patients who have to deal with chronic pain Better process their emotions.
