GSR, which stands for galvanic skin response, is a method that gauges the electrical conductance of the skin. When individuals experience strong emotions, their sympathetic nervous system can trigger an increase in sweat from the sweat glands. By utilizing Grove - GSR, you can easily detect these emotional changes by placing two electrodes on your fingers. This technology can inspire intriguing projects related to emotions, like a monitor for sleep quality.
- The Galvanic Skin Response Sensor (GSR - Sweating) allows you to measure the electrical conductance of the skin.
- It acts as an indicator of psychological or physiological arousal.
- Skin conductance, also known as galvanic skin response (GSR) is a method of measuring the electrical conductance of the skin, which varies with its moisture level.
- This is of interest because the sweat glands are controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, so moments of strong emotion, change the electrical resistance of the skin.
- Skin conductance is used as an indication of psychological or physiological arousal, The device measures the electrical conductance between 2 points and is essentially a type of ohmmeter.
