While grocery shopping, I explode with white-hot rage. When cooking pasta, I fume with Hulk-like fury. During a stroll through the park, my stress levels are through the roof — or so my ring tells me. It wants me to mellow out and take deep breaths. Who knew a plastic hunk of jewelry could help me stop and smell the roses?
Turns out the $250 bling on my finger — a souped-up, high-tech version of a mood ring called the Moodmetric ring — can do just that. It joins a growing crop of emotion-tracking wearables recently introduced from Helsinki to Palo Alto, all vying to slip onto your hand and wrist to help you find Zen in your busy life. Most of these devices are expected to ship next year.
