Arduino Nano Stress Monitor Kit: Real-Time Skin Conductance Display
Stress Level Skin Resistance Monitor Kit with Arduino Nano: Real-Time Biofeedback on OLED
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Have you ever wondered how your skin reveals emotional states? This kit lets you build a compact monitor that senses tiny changes in sweat gland activity - the galvanic skin response - and translates them into a glowing bar graph on an OLED screen. Perfect for class projects on health technology, psychology experiments, or personal wellness exploration.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble a fully functional stress level monitor using an Arduino Nano, a GSR sensor module, and a 0.96-inch OLED display. The device clips onto two fingers, reads skin conductance in real time, and dynamically updates a bar that rises and falls with changes in your stress level. It's a tangible way to explore biofeedback, human-computer interaction, and physiological sensing.
What You'll Learn
- Interface a GSR (galvanic skin response) sensor with Arduino Nano
- Program OLED displays to show dynamic bar graphs
- Filter raw analog signals using resistor-capacitor circuits
- Interpret physiological data and relate it to biofeedback principles

Who This Kit Is For
Young makers at ATL Tinkering Labs exploring health electronics, CBSE Class 11-12 students working on science projects, and parents introducing biofeedback concepts to children. It's also a great addition for B.Tech ECE/EEE students prototyping wearables or participating in Smart India Hackathon challenges.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project - accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code inside the box to chat with the AI companion that knows every connection and code line for this kit. You can also reach us on WhatsApp for human help.
Is this kit safe for children under 15?
Yes, it uses a low-voltage 9V battery and skin-safe electrode clips. Assembly is solder-free, but adult supervision is recommended for younger builders.
Can I log the stress data to a computer?
Absolutely. With a minor code tweak, you can send the sensor readings over serial to the Arduino IDE serial monitor. The companion documentation includes this example.
Do I need to solder anything?
No soldering required. All connections are made on a breadboard using the included jumper wires.
GSR galvanic skin response sensor reads skin conductance. OLED bar shows stress level estimate.
