The main motivation of this research is to bridge the gap between modern neurological technologies and architecture, mainly in the topic of emotional and psychological response detection. This research conducts a revision of topics such as human perception, visual perception, space-generated emotions and psychological impact, and human emotions, beside a revision of modern technologies currently being implemented in the medicinal field with the purpose of emotion detection such as electroencephalography EEG and functional magnetic resonance imaging fMRI from an architectural practice perspective. Moreover, this research (a) suggested characteristics that are thought to be of great importance if included in any emotion's evaluation tool that is meant to be used in architectural practice, (b) evaluated reviewed technologies based on the suggested characteristics in order to determine the most suitable available technology, and (c) suggested futuristic actions to be taken into consideration by technologies' manufacturers and developers to finally deliver a version of the technology that fulfills architectural practice demands, particularly in detecting emotional responses generated by spaces.
