I built this device while I was working at SeymourPowell in London. It was designed to help researchers dig deeper in interviews. There are two parts of the device; one part looks for signs of emotional arousal in the interviewee and the other conveys the presence of such arousal to the interviewer.

The video shows an early schematic of the device. I modularized the building process to ease debugging and testing. Note the actuated haptic motor towards the end of the video.
Wire Discipline
Fitting so many wires in a tight shell was a big challenge.
Quick and Dirty
The initial models were made of plastic and foam for quick testing of forms and ergonomics.
