Sensor box for measuring the skin resistance of a
human guinea pig under the influence of internal
and external factors, e.g., under stress, after a
frightening event, or in the course of autogenic
training.
It can also demonstrate the principle of the “lie
detector”.
The instrument gives a reading for skin resistance
(“Sres”) in megohm units (M
Ω).
The sensor box is detected automatically by the 3B
NETlog
TM unit.
