Stress can cause many other health problems. It’s a natural human reaction that everyone experiences. We can experience stress from any event or thought that makes us feel frustrated, angry, or nervous. Stress has become a major concern these days. Scientists have made a new discovery in this field. Scientists at JNCASR, Bengaluru, have created a device that senses stress using a silver wire network on a stretchable material. Let’s find out how this tool works. But, first of all know what is a stress detector?
What is a Stress Detector?
Researchers at the Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) in Bengaluru have developed a device that can detect stress. The new technology mimics the way neurons and synapses work in the human body. This device is called “Neuromorphic Device” and is made using a silver wire network embedded in a stretchable material.

How does the stress detector work?
When the material in the neuromorphic device is stretched, small gaps are created in the silver network causing the electric pathway to be temporarily disrupted. To reconnect this gaps electric pulse is used, which fills these gaps and remember the event. Whenever this device goes through this stretching and reassembly process, it readjusts its response. It is like our body tolerates repeated pain. These pain-like reactions in this device could help doctors detect stress in the future.
Stress is a major factor in many health problems, including high blood pressure, heart problems, stroke, obesity, and diabetes. Learning how to manage stress is very important for physical and mental health. Technology can play an important role in this. The stress detector i. e. Neuromorphic device differentiates itself by combining sensing and adaptive feedback in a flexible unit and provides a better way for the technology to naturally adapt to its environment, without complex setups or external sensors.
