We propose an interactive smart assistant that is designed to playfully augment user performance in the workplace without the user having to say anything. Universally, humans express emotions and feelings through their faces (Ekman, 1997). Our smart assistant observes a human user, infers emotional state, and reasons to effect relevant feedback. The assistant embodies an affective model of the subject for advising more effective actions, behaviors, and work practices.
