Feel is getting close to releasing a rather svelte looking wristband that recognizes five basic emotions (happy, angry, sad, stressed and satisfied). The device is equipped with four bio-sensors, Bluetooth LE and is waterproof. The bio-sensors are:
HRV – Heart Rate Variability
GSR – Galvanic Skin Response (sweat)
ST – Skin Temperature
IMU – Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)
The HRV is being accomplished with the use of a Blood Volume Pressure (BVP) sensor. Feel includes a companion app to help track emotions on a calendar level. The goal is to determine where, when and during what activities with whom cause patterns in emotion.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, or even use Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for MakeCode, CircuitPython, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
