I proposed a project a couple of years ago called the Quantified Coder, basically looking at hooking as many biometrics as possible into emacs. There's a small presentation on it at http://www.openyou.org/2011/05/13/the-quantified-coder/ Unfortunately it never got off the ground due to lots of reasons, but I'd still love to get it going sometime. If anyone needs help with getting devices talking (whether they have open drivers or not :) ), that's pretty much what I do. :D I still wonder if org is the right medium for this. Most of the devices are going to give you a TON of data (the neurosky raw stream is ~500hz update, emotiv is ~128hz, etc...). Pedometers and blood pressure monitors that do one-time large dumps might be somewhat more feasible.
