I can't think of a really good reason for such
a device, but the wristband would sense your
pulse and light up/glow/blink in rythm with
your heartbeat. You could tell if I was
nervous, relaxed, etc. Just kinda creepy
knowing that it's my heartbeat making my
watch blink, sort of like a pseudo-biological
feedback indicator, with no other purpose
than to amuse and intrigue. The watch
functions normally otherwise.

Plenty of people need to monitor their hearts for health reasons, so there is a ready market for this. I have no idea if you can find ones that pulsate, but it wouldn't surprise me. |

It seems that there's already the
technology, but I've yet to see a watch that
makes aesthetic use of your hearbeat.
Those pulsating watches are cool. Now all
they need to do is add a heart monitor... |
