Keep Calm And Carry On, So Says The Smartphone

Stress is not unknown to us but it gets the better of us on our bad days. Researchers are developing a smartphone that can sense the mood of its owner by analyzing various and vast amount of data at hand.

Android Remote Sensing app (AIRS) has all the traits of becoming a watchful friend. AIRS provides the needed personal management by gathering data to point towards specific causes of stress. The inbuilt sensors in the smartphone can account for environmental aspects such as weather, noise levels, manner of communication and use this data to construct a "narrative". The spikes in the data gathered are noted as "meaningful events" in a blog-style timeline.

The blog-style timeline is a feature of the desktop-based myRoR platform which accepts the input from AIRS to plot a person's activities in an organized and engaging way. What's more? Make AIRS your personal assistant while it sails you to a less nerve-wracking lifestyle.
