Ever since the Coronavirus-led pandemic forced the global population to adapt to the work-from-home culture, we’ve seen many companies, organizations and researchers come up with solutions to track people’s mental health. This is because working from home can become stressful for an individual at times, and employers need to help the employees cope up in this time of crisis. So now, there is a wearable that can tell an employer how their employees are feeling in a working week.

At first glance, Moodbeam looks like any other fitness tracker that is available in the market. However, instead of a display, the wearable features two buttons – a yellow one and a blue one. What’s their use you ask?

Moodbeam Wristband: Ideation

Now, the idea of this wearable originated in the mind of Moodbeam’s co-founder, Christina Colmer McHugh. When Christina’s daughter was struggling at school, she wanted to create a way for the child to let her know about her feelings. So, after a lot of work, Colmer came up with Moodbeam, and it was made commercially available back in 2016.
