People prone to anxiety may have palpitations more frequently when they find themselves in psychologically uncomfortable situations. The great majority of issues about the heart presented to physicians indicate a psychological rather than a physical problem. This design examined the correlation between heartbeat rates and anxiety. The idea is to use biometric parameters to monitor anxiety. Furthermore, we will approach results of analysis provided support for finding out the performance of our prototype. Our aim is to ensure a healthy academic environment, based on previous findings to design a prototype which asserts in wearable assistive technologies including illustration of our design decisions and demonstrate the design processes that have been followed clearly.
