Today I’ll write you some words about an interesting project called Bio Mapping. The goal of this project is to track and analyze people behavior. Tracking is being made by watching people behavior in several cities.

Till now 1500 project participants are wearing innovative device called Galvanic Skin Response (GSR). This device fixes geographical location and people emotions associated with the location. The result of exploration is printed on emotions maps. For example, here is San Francisco emotion map.

Using such data you can find the most emotional and the most inspiring places people like to go. The application goal looks very similar to Google Analytics statistics in the internet, but Biomapping is the real world application.

Some scientists say that till 2012 each American will have about 10 wireless sensors. Maybe the future is not so far away from today?
