This paper describes an approach applied to decorative home paintings: an emotional interaction approach. The study utilizes the theory of constructed emotion and the Wizard of Oz research methodology to extend the user's emotional experience in home scenarios with emotional self-reflection and regulation. Family Emotion Decorative Painting uses the family-shared photo library as the image base data, obtains the emotion type through facial expression and voice emotion recognition, and correlates the moment's emotion with the emotion reacted in the picture. Through qualitative research, we found that family emotional decorative painting can bring emotional arousal and soothing to participants. Family Emotional Decorative Paintings also provoked reflection on technology in and around the home. These findings suggest several opportunities, such as designing for anticipation, better supporting reflection on the past. The study also allowed the team to question the traditional interaction design view that more frequent and prolonged human-computer interactions are a measure of good design. The team will next focus on ways for users to engage in novel and meaningful ways outside of the application.
