Potentially an interesting weekend project for someone with an Oculus Rift and a USB heart monitor :-)

  side-project: figure out how high the latency can get before the effects become less apparent. Eg does it still work if there's a delay of half a second between your heart actually beating and you hearing/seeing the sound? Or two seconds?

    The heart beats at a minimum of 60 BPM (except in endurance athletes where the resting frequency can drop lower). One second of delay or more would offset the flash after the next beat, and, since the heart frequency varies slightly spontaneously, it would probably prevent the phenomenon... or maybe not :-)

    "Speech Jammer" gadgets do something similar to your speech, and IIRC have been used in speech therapy as well (for stuttering).

  Don't need the heart monitor you could do something like this -> http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2012/amplifying-invisible-video-0622.html http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2012/amplifying-invisible-vide...

  A mirror and a blinking spotlight also makes it.
