The new software measures everything in Web users from body heat to eye movements to facial expressions and analyzes how they relate to online activities.
The technology is now being tested at the newly opened Bell User Experience Centre, which is located at the telecom giant's Nun's Island campus.
Bell will use the University of Montreal technology to investigate how people react to Web sites. Such studies will provide companies with facts on how they can improve online experiences.
Professor Dufresne said: "With e-commerce and the multiplication of retail Web sites, it has become crucial for companies to consider the emotions of Web users.
"Our software is the first designed to measure emotions at conscious and preconscious levels, which will give companies a better sense of the likes and dislikes of Web users."
