Can feelings be measured?

At the Dolby's biophysics laboratory, scientists are watching people's reactions to images and sound. The laboratory, run by the scientist Evan Gitterman, records visual and auditory effects on people. The signals from the human brain are recorded on 64 different channels. According to each subject's reaction to a different image and sound, both the temperature map and changes in brain waves are observed. In other words, the reaction given by the human brain is measured.

We dived into the computer screen

Which platforms do we like to watch? Let's put them in size order: Smart TV, desktop computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones. Which one do you prefer while watching movies and TV series? We asked this question on the "Poltio" platform. The answer we got from 500 people was mostly desktop computers and laptops rather than TV.

Television lost its leadership to desktop computers and laptops. But we can also say that the answers were still evenly distributed. There was a difference of about 14 percent between the option that received the most votes and the one with the highest votes. This shows that the number of viewers watching from four different platforms is not low. Around 24 percent of voters said platform did not matter.

With Netflix, you can also edit your subtitles as you wish and experience the most comfortable viewing, so you can prevent your content from being interrupted with subtitles. Many users love editing the subtitles in different fonts, colors and sizes.
