CITYZEN USES THE MOST ADVANCED BIOTECHNOLOGY TO DETECT AND MEASURE STRESS LEVELS IN CITIZENS. ONCE A CRITICAL STRESS LEVEL OF 73 [THE HOLMES & RAHE STRESS SCALE] HAS BEEN DETECTED, AN ANTI STRESS BUBBLE IS RELEASED.
ELECTRODES TAP INTO THE ALPHA & THETA WAVES [OCCUR WHEN CALM & RELAXED] EMITTED BY THE BRAIN AND TRANSFORMS THEM TO ENERGY USED TO ELEVATE THE CITIZEN AND THE BUBBLE INTO THE ATMOSPHERE.
THE AMOUNT OF EXERCISE ACCOMPLISHED AND THE ELEVATION OF THE BUBBLE ARE DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL.
ONCE A MINIMUM STRESS LEVEL OF 35 HAS BEEN REACHED THE DESCENT BEGINS AND A WELL-BALANCED CITIZEN RESUMES THEIR DAY.
