Just Stop It

Southampton researchers help develop smart bra to measure mood to prevent over-eating
The prototype contains removable sensors that monitor heart and skin activity. The data collected is processed via a model to determine the emotional state and the intervention is sent to the wearer via a smartphone app. These physical symptoms are supposed to indicate mood, which a woman can track in order to highlight when 'emotional eating' is likely to occur.
Now I understand you boys might like to play around with electronic bras, but you engineers know nothing about women or metabolism. Go back to your labs and build a shock collar for yourself- one that fires when you have stupid ideas like this.
