「我問她會不會冷,她笑著對我說不會,我哪知道她會冷啊,我就繼續穿著我的外套看電影啦,結果晚上睡前她就說我超不貼心,她冷得要死也不借她外套,氣得要跟我分手。」,苦主哀怨的說…..。不用猜了,現在韓國科學技術院(KAIST) Young-Ho Cho 教授,研發出可以偵測情緒和身邊環境變化的感應貼片,只要將感應貼片貼在身上,就可以知道受測者現在是否正冷得發抖。
這麼神奇的貼片究竟是怎麼辦到的?
當我們有強烈情緒反應或氣溫突然驟降時,皮膚上會冒出一顆一顆的雞皮疙瘩,而雞皮疙瘩會改變貼片的形狀,貼片內的電容因而下降。藉由這些電子訊號的變化,就可以測量雞皮疙瘩的高度和持續的時間。研究成果發表在美國物理協會(American Institute of Physics)出版的《Applied Physics Letters》期刊上。但是,這麼方便的雞皮疙瘩感應器卻有令人扼腕的缺點,就是傳輸電子訊號的裝置還沒跟著貼片一起縮小,所以想要不知不覺瞭解另一半起雞皮疙瘩狀況,還要再等等囉。
