Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University have used e-tattoos to detect electrodermal activity and measure patients' emotional stress levels.
A newly developed "e-tattoo" monitors electrodermal activity, revealing when a person is experiencing elevated stress levels. The "tattoo" attaches to the user's palm and connects to a smartwatch.
Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University have used electronic tattoo (e-tattoo) technology to measure stress levels, by attaching a device to people's palms (AKA electrodermal activity or EDA sensing). The researchers created a graphene-based e-tattoo that attaches to the palm, is nearly invisible and connects to a smart watch. Image In June 2022, researchers from the same universities also developed a graphene-based electronic tattoo that can be worn on the wrist for hours and deliver continuous blood pressure measurements at an accuracy level excee...
When someone is anxious or excited, their hands often become damp, which can reveal a lot about their mental state. This response is used to assess emotional st
Researchers at UT Austin received a $3.6 million grant to do a five-year study focusing on how humans interact with robots in public.
