Yurex Keeps Track Of Restless Legs

While you’re reading this post, take a look at your leg (as well as those of your colleagues) – are any of them shaking? If the answer is ‘yes’ to at least one person, then you had best place an order for the Yurex contraption. This made in Japan device helps users visualize, monitor and control how their restless legs shake. It might be a tad uncomfortable at first though since you’ll need to strap it to your thigh, where two silver disco ball-shaped sensors will go about measuring your leg’s horizontal and vertical vibrations, displaying the accumulated leg-shake tally on a 10-digit LCD counter. When connected to a computer’s USB port, the specially programmed software will download data from the Yurex and analyze the wearer’s leg-shaking habits and rhythm patterns, coming up with a personalized “creative beat pattern” based on the data received. It is said that whenever a boost of creative energy is required, all users need to do is jiggle their knees in concert with this beat data in order to obtain superior brain power. Guess all the geniuses of the Renaissance period shook their legs, ranging from Michaelangelo when he painted the Sistine Chapel and Leonardo when he did Mona Lisa. Wait a minute, that didn’t come out quite right…
