Please watch this video, can anyone describe the technology behind this?
So bosy reacts to stress, sweat glands extract, electrodes reads changes in skin response, but how then is the info sent to the app?
Anyone got a detailed tech description/explanation?

Wikipedia.org > Electrodermal Activity
... skin resistance varies with the state of sweat glands in the skin. Sweating is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, and skin conductance is an indication of psychological or physiological arousal. If the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system is highly aroused, then sweat gland activity also increases, which in turn increases skin conductance. In this way, skin conductance can be a measure of emotional and sympathetic responses. More recent research and additional phenomena (resistance, potential, impedance, and admittance, sometimes responsive and sometimes apparently spontaneous) suggest this is not a complete answer, and research continues into the source and significance of EDA.
