SensMe

SensMe is a proprietary music mood and tempo detection system created by Sony Corporation and employed in numerous Sony branded products, including in some Walkman digital music players, the Media Go application, the PlayStation Portable, and Sony Ericsson and Sony Xperia handsets. It is named Omakase Channel (おまかせチャンネル) in Japan.

The function also appears as 12 Tone Analysis released with the VAIO Music Box software, for compatible Vaio notebooks.

Method
SensMe works by using a twelve tone analysis of all the user's music individually, computing track information based on the mood and tempo of the tracks, and then outputting them for the user to play these automatically generated playlists. Initially (on Sony Ericsson devices), the software would use a dual axis map which all the analyzed tracks are plotted into, allowing the user to navigate to an area of the map to play a playlist or an individual track. In later devices, including Walkman DAPs and the PSP, the analyzed tracks are categorised into 12 "channels" that is navigable in a list, with names such as Lounge, Upbeat, Emotional, and others.

Compatible products
SensMe debuted on the Sony Ericsson W910i phone in 2007.

PlayStation Portable
SensMe was made available on the PlayStation Portable as of system software version 6.10. It can be downloaded via the XMB or by using a computer. The application features twelve channels by which music is categorized. These include Favorites, Newly Added, Dance, Extreme, Lounge, Emotional, Mellow, Upbeat, Relax, Energetic, Morning/Day/Night/Midnight, and Shuffle All.
