Omeos Smart Band

Before smart watches and fitness trackers were trending, I had an idea: what if heart rate monitoring and social networking collided? Omeos is a stress regulating device, based on the principle of mutual support among friends and partners. This smart wrist band uses sensor technology to assess stress levels and initiate friendly contact through non-verbal communication. If the heart rate of one person increases, their friend with the corresponding device is notified and may initiate non-verbal feedback as a sign of support.
