Computers are learning our emotions

A student at a college in mass is trying to create a computer that can read emotions. Be able to tell when we're happy, sad, angry. He's starting off with 7 basic emotions but hopes someday it will grow more. Of course with different regions people's facial expressions when they feel one emotion might be different. We all express emotions on our face, everyday, all day, without even thinking twice of it. So many people are working on this, trying to develop it more.  Can you imagine, a computer actually knowing how you feel? The freaks me out a lot. Computers are getting more and more smart, will they outsmart us?
