<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://www.flashenabled.com/' target='_blank'>http://www.flashenabled.com/</a><br /><br /></div>"i'm now using a biofeedback monitor to navigate a few applications i built. basically, you get around the app by either getting stressed or relaxed (some apps wouldn't be hard to convert one day for that :-] ). i've also made an application that plays a movie, but only if you're relaxed, it's cool to watch the movie stop when one gets agitated. eventually, i'd like to only let people in good moods use the applications i make."<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/biothumb.jpg" /> <br /><br />oh that crazy pt!

I have allways believed in biofeedback a method of training yourself to relax.

I remember a RadioShack Biofeedback meter I used to play with.

Anyone know of biofeedback for the Pocket PC?

If Enya started playing I'd get more stressed not less. 8O

Now a bit of Green Day always helps me to relax! :lol:

Names that have, and will go down in history as being ahead of their time...Da Vinci, Newton, Einstein.....torrone!

Who else in the world Segways to work wearing shoes that spell, while listening to music that is selfdetermined by their mood, and cleans oneself with caffine soap?

the pocket pc version will be ready soon, stay tuned folks!

the tablet pc version i'm working on is cool, the tablet will glow red (mad) yellow (okay) and green (happy) as your mood changes.

cheers,

Now that's cool, now not only will everyone know I'm a geek when I'm using my Tablet PC, but they will also be able to tell if I'm mad at them. :lol:

Looks pretty cool pt, I can really see applications for that with "music to match your mood" and similar things. Where do you come up with these ideas? 8)

the music thing is cool, and i think at some point i could make it so different web page suggestions would be presented based on mood as well...as far as the ideas, who knows- i don't really sleep that much :-]

cheers,

Hmmm maybe this software should be tied to IE for web forums and Outlook Express for e-mail and newgroups?
It would keep an agitated person from posting anything rash until they chilled out a bit. I know I sure could use something like that from time to time. :? :)

Just as long as I'm not frustratedly working on a paper when a game pops up. Then I'd *really* never get anything done...

Whoa...is the wrist walkie talkie even real? Way cool... 8) Not to mention uber-geeko. :P

Another great idea, PT.

I like the changing colors idea on the tablet PC.. and I could really see this work for me in an anger-management kinda way: If you're too stressed out to be communicating with other people, why not let you know by shocking you with 220 mains voltage? :lol:

I'd say, combine this with that shocking vest, and we have a winner.

Well if you're interested in a product that's been doing the same thing for decades, except with brain activity instead of skin activity, and that already has PocketPC software, please check out the site:

Hmm... maybe I should try that. Wait... I'm already up past midnight fairly often, I wonder how much later I can get? 8O

Not the same at all... Brain waves and galvanic skin responce are much different. :)

Yes. That was my point.
