Abstract (EN): While affective computing and the entertainment industry still maintain a substantial gap between themselves, biosignals are subject of digital acquisition through low budget technologic solutions at neglectable invasive levels. The integration of electroencephalography, galvanic skin response and oximeter in a multichannel framework constitutes an effort in the path to identify emotional states via biosignals expression. To induce and detect specific emotions, gender-specific sessions were defined based on International Affective Picture System and performed in a controlled environment. Data was collected and visualized in real-time by the session instructor and stored for processing and analysis. Results granted by distinct analysis techniques showed that high frequency EEG waves are strongly related to emotions and are a solid ground to perform accurate emotion classification. They have also given strong indications that females are more sensitive to emotion induction. One might conclude that the attained success levels concerning relating emotions to biosignals are extremely encouraging not only to this research topic but also to the its application in domains such as multimedia entertainment, advertising and medical treatments.
