"YUREX" Jitter Counter by Meiwa Denki measures your Nerve and Anxiety
YUREX by KAYAC Inc. and artist Meiwa Denki is a pedometer-like gadget that counts binbo-yusuri (the nervous involuntary movement of your leg when you're jumpy).
This absurd device was chosen as one of the Jury Recommended Works in Entertainment division of Japan Media Arts Festival 2009.

This YUREX development project is a special device that measures binbo-yusuri (the action of jittering your leg).
The device was exhibited on a mannequin's leg, wearing Meiwa Denki's uniform.

Like any pedometer, YUREX will count your "Creative Beat".
Here's a demonstration video.
