To automatically measure the mental workload of developers, existing studies have used biometric measures such as brain waves and the heart rate. However, developers are often required to equip certain devices when measuring them, and can therefore be physically burdened. In this study, we evaluated the feasibility of non-contact biometric measures based on the nasal skin temperature (NST). In the experiment, the proposed biometric measures were more accurate than non-biometric measures.
