                                        Novel human-machine interfaces not only consider verbal and touch interactions or interactions via gestures
                                        and facial expressions, but also exploit physiological signals. Physiological signals combined with contextual
                                        information, allow not only for the prediction of intentions related to what a person may intend to do, but also
                                        the how. In this talk, I will describe how physiological signals like heart rate, respiration rate, skin conductance,
                                        and electroencephalogram can be exploited to build brain and body computer interfaces and how recognized
                                        intentions and emotions can be mapped to real world adaptive actions.
