Introduction: Our project is a serial port-controlled, high resolution color television picture display. We divided the project into the image transfer and storage portion and the television display portion. We opted for an RS-232 port for picture transmission because it involves a relatively simple, well-known protocol that will allow us to change the picture on

Introduction Our project measures the user’s skin conductance for monitoring his or her mental state. Summary Medical experiments have shown that the magnitude of the electrical conductance in a person’s skin is directly correlated to their emotional state. The short term changes in electrical conductances also correlate with a person’s mental response. We implemented an
