Raccoonal: An Emotional Well-Being App
Point of View

Finding context to your emotions is the first step in practicing mindfulness. But we want to pinpoint the importance of being open and honest in accepting your emotions. Practicing emotional expression can clarify the context of your emotions, hence increase self-awareness and guide you to prioritize things that are more important to you. By noticing the small things that affects your emotion, it can lead to a bigger result of a happier you.

Core Features

The core interaction between the user and the app will be the emotion recognition scanner using Affectiva API and the game interaction with the raccoons who offer emotional support and daily mindful tips. The emotion recognition scanner can also keep track of user's emotions in a calendar form, where user can check on self reflection notes as well.
