Project Summary

A biometric research company engaged Net PC to build a custom web platform to record respondents' faces, synchronize camera recordings with presented stimuli and enable online data collection. The platform replaced in-person test rooms with remote research capabilities, reducing research time and costs while preserving research methodology standards. Net PC designed, implemented and hosted the solution, and the client praised the team's understanding, flexibility and timely delivery.

Key Challenges

Lack of flexibility with regular surveys limited to specially prepared rooms
Technical limitations of existing test rooms
Absence of a dedicated web application to recognize human emotions
High costs and long research timelines across multiple locations
No system to synchronize camera recording with stimulus presentation or verify face visibility before stimuli

Project Deliverables

Platform for synchronization of stimuli presentation with camera recording
Remote camera management functionality
Online survey creation and data collection into a central database
Per-stimulus video file capture and integrated questionnaires
Ability to send personalized links to respondents with presented materials
Automatic generation and download of research results as a database
Implementation and hosting of the application

Project Solution

Net PC designed and implemented a web-based platform that synchronizes the presentation of visual/audio stimuli with camera recordings, captures a separate video file per stimulus and allows respondents to complete questionnaires after viewing stimuli. They implemented remote camera management (with respondent consent), online survey capabilities and a central database for structured data collection, and provided hosting for the application. The team used TypeScript, JavaScript and Java and followed Scrum; GDPR compliance was ensured.

Project Outcome

Elimination of time constraints by enabling remote research
Reduction of research costs
Maintenance of research methodology standards despite remote locations
Automatic collection and storage of structured and accurate data
Functionality to display stimuli with simultaneous recording from USB or built-in cameras
Ability to send personalized links to respondents with presented materials
Automatic generation and download of research results as a database
Implementation and hosting completed within 12 months of final acceptance
Safe data collection during epidemiological threats
Shortened implementation time for nationwide surveys
