Framework for the Detection of Physiological Parameters with Musical Stimuli Based on IoT

Music is a universal language present in all cultures throughout history, and its influence on human psychology is amply demonstrated. Music provides a direct link to emotions. Numerous investigations study the relationship between musical characteristics and physiological parameters produced or even induced. This paper presents the development of a framework that includes support for sensorization infrastructure based on IO technologies. The tool allows to monitor in real time the physiological response of the user to musical stimuli and to store such data. In this way, external stimuli, as well as fluctuations in the physiological response, can be treated and analysed and, ultimately, the emotional state of the user can be determined.
