Now track your stress level through Android smartphone app
TT Correspondent |  |  25 Mar 2013

Here is good news for those who want to know their physical conditions, especially the stress level in daily routine without going to their doctors or pathological labs every now and then.
 
Dirk Trossen, a senior researcher in the computer laboratory at the University of Cambridge has developed a smartphone app called Android Remote Sensing App ( AIRS) which takes note of you daily stress, according to state.com.
 
“AIRS app uses all the sensors built into mobile devices to measure physical changes” Dirk Trossen was quoted by the website as saying. “It also records environmental noise and tracks calls and text messages”.
 
Measured by the phone's accelerometer the app tracks noise level; social activity, as monitored by texts and calls; changing environmental conditions, and even posture.
 
It also helps the user track moods expressed through emoticons and use attached monitors to provide pulse and heart-rate data, the report said. It tracks your mood or stress level when you receive particular email or text.
 
The app can make people more aware and ultimately reduce the burden on health care systems.
