What the world needs now

According to Microsoft it's a bra that tries to keep women from overeating when they feel stress. The company has invented such a device. It is placed in the bra to monitor heart rate, respiration, skin conductance and movement. The device then sends the data to a smartphone app which tells the user to stop eating. The likelihood of a person following this instruction is minimal plus the battery of the device lasts only four hours.
Microsoft, being a 21st century company, also tried the device in men's underwear, but it did not work well because of the distance of underwear from the heart.
