Someone recently figured out a clever hack for android phones that lets you take heart rate using the built-in camera and flash (since the two are next to one another). You put your thumb over the camera and flash, and the system looks for changes in brightness. Now it's only a matter of time before someone does an anxiety-reducing / meditation app that monitors heart rate variability and provides feedback.
