There was something around in the late 1980s that claimed to judge stress levels from skin contact--a ring or a wristband or something. I didn't pay attention, but imagine that it used skin temperature as a proxy for blood pressure as a proxy for stress.
- daniel-cussen 4y agoNo, well first off the measurement of temperature is terrible, very inaccurate and low resolution. In the second event, I have multiple things I want to measure and I can't derive stress from temp, I have adrenaline going on a lot of the time (more and more often than most, because of stress doing nothing), and then, whatever I've got going on...which also affects things. Then indoor heating, what I've eaten, what I'm wearing? No, much better to draw blood and take a litmus test, temperature is plain noise.
