Growing concerns related to sleep disorders are expected continue driving this market, for which key manufacturers are collaborating with research institutes to map stress levels and design product lines. For example, as Fact.MR reports, Shiseido initiated a joint research project with the Institute for Biomedical Problems (Russian Academy of Sciences) on stress assessment through remote measurements of symmetry and movement in facial expression; in this case, in astronauts and cosmonauts in insolation.
