&lt;p&gt;This Stress Level Indicator is based on a Arduino board that I expanded with some external hardware like an SD card, pixel LEDs, and power management. It&amp;rsquo;s basically a modern hourglass that can be used as a fun gadget in the office. The idea is that someone uses the device to indicate their own stress level so everyone else immediately knows what mood your in. Here is an idea: Give it to your boss. Your boss can use this device so all the employees know when to ask the most important question: &amp;ldquo;Can I get a raise?&amp;rdquo; After looking at the stress level indicator, seeing a red light, you might want to wait to ask important questions&amp;hellip; You can increase the stress level by pressing the push button. After a few minutes, the level decreases automatically until all stress is gone. The best part is that any change in level will play a unique sound that you can change by saving the desired sounds to the SD card.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This Stress Level Indicator is based on a Arduino board that I expanded with some external hardware like an SD card, pixel LEDs, and power management. It&amp;rsquo;s basically a modern hourglass that can be used as a fun gadget in the office. The idea is that someone uses the device to indicate their own stress level so everyone else immediately knows what mood your in. Here is an idea: Give it to your boss. Your boss can use this device so all the employees know when to ask the most important question: &amp;ldquo;Can I get a raise?&amp;rdquo; After looking at the stress level indicator, seeing a red light, you might want to wait to ask important questions&amp;hellip; You can increase the stress level by pressing the push button. After a few minutes, the level decreases automatically until all stress is gone. The best part is that any change in level will play a unique sound that you can change by saving the desired sounds to the SD card.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This Stress Level Indicator is based on a Arduino board that I expanded with some external hardware like an SD card, pixel LEDs, and power management. It&amp;rsquo;s basically a modern hourglass that can be used as a fun gadget in the office. The idea is that someone uses the device to indicate their own stress level so everyone else immediately knows what mood your in. Here is an idea: Give it to your boss. Your boss can use this device so all the employees know when to ask the most important question: &amp;ldquo;Can I get a raise?&amp;rdquo; After looking at the stress level indicator, seeing a red light, you might want to wait to ask important questions&amp;hellip; You can increase the stress level by pressing the push button. After a few minutes, the level decreases automatically until all stress is gone. The best part is that any change in level will play a unique sound that you can change by saving the desired sounds to the SD card.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This Stress Level Indicator is based on a Arduino board that I expanded with some external hardware like an SD card, pixel LEDs, and power management. It&amp;rsquo;s basically a modern hourglass that can be used as a fun gadget in the office. The idea is that someone uses the device to indicate their own stress level so everyone else immediately knows what mood your in. Here is an idea: Give it to your boss. Your boss can use this device so all the employees know when to ask the most important question: &amp;ldquo;Can I get a raise?&amp;rdquo; After looking at the stress level indicator, seeing a red light, you might want to wait to ask important questions&amp;hellip; You can increase the stress level by pressing the push button. After a few minutes, the level decreases automatically until all stress is gone. The best part is that any change in level will play a unique sound that you can change by saving the desired sounds to the SD card.&lt;/p&gt;
