Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 工程科學系碩博士班 === 92 ===   In this study, a non-contact temperature measurement method called infrared thermography is used to measure temperature. The first object of this thesis is to compare this non-contact method of skin surface temperature measurement with traditional biofeedback device to see if these temperature readings from loci of different traditional biofeedback device had the same trends of change. The temperatures measured with traditional biofeedback device includes at right index finger, ear, and forehead. The second object is to understand the temperature affect when one listens in ”Guided Imaginary Muscle Relaxative Music”. 15 healthy volunteers are recruited for the experiment. In the first phase, the temperatures at right index, ear, and forehead of all of the volunteers are measured. At the same time, their corresponding temperatures of the left hand are also measured by thermal camera. In the second phase, the 15 volunteers are divided into two groups. One group is given the listening of “Guided Imaginary Muscle Relaxative Music”. The other group doesn’t listen to the music. In our experiments, both of the measures with thermal camera and traditional devices have the same trend but with higher temperature for the thermal camera. Another result is that the “Guided Imaginary Muscle Relaxative Music” can guide the temperature rising. It means that the listener is disimpassioned when he listen the music. This result may be helpful for assisting psychopath.
