Philips has developed a new device designed specifically for emotional traders who often make decisions under the influence of emotions. According to Paul Suit (Paul Iske), Director of Dialogues Incubator, men are more guided by emotions when making decisions than women. Device called Rationalizer and consists of two parts - bracelet-meter emotions EmoBracelet and desktop bowl-signaling EmoBowl. Equipped with sensors galvanic skin response, the device senses variations in the emotions of a man surprisingly quickly and accurately.
Despite the fact that the device does not see the difference between positive and negative emotions, it is still able to perform its main task: to warn the trader that he is going to take a decision under the pressure of emotion.
With the growth in levels of stress, EmoBracelet transmits the signal wirelessly to EmoBowl, which is gradually changing the lighting with soft-yellow to orange and then red.
Not yet decided to launch Rationalizer into mass production, but I think it's a matter of time.
Paul lawsuit stated that the concept underlying the Rationalizer, will be studied further because they may prove useful in various applications, and may have experienced a wristband technology in a particular embodiment can be applied to other production companies.
