Passive Measurement of Autonomic Arousal in Real-World Settings

Samy Abdel-Ghaffar, Isaac Galatzer-Levy, Conor Heneghan +5

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is activated during stress, which can have negative effects on cardiovascular health, sleep, the immune system, and mental health. While there ar…
