I know what you think right now...

So its finally here... the ultimate tool for the Kelsows (That 70's show) of the world. If you can't bring yourself to look at a woman's face when she talks (busy looking at the 'other' place) then this device is for you. The scanner maps the target's features in 3D and 'reads' the emotions. It will tell you what the target's reaction is.

Jokes apart, this device can be used for lots of products that require extensively subjective testing. Good news for the FMCG world, where you've got to get that product in the market before the neighbour does.

One thing I hope this can be useful in is that now we can have a real database of pickup lines that actually work!
