If you have restless legs and people around you have recommended you all sorts of devices to get you rid of this “habit”, you should know that the Yurex leg monitor won't help you in that way. Instead, this interesting gadget will channel all that jitter, creating music to go along with the natural rhythms of your legs.

Although it might seem rather complicated, the functioning process of this device is in fact really simple. Thus, all you have to do is strap the monitor to your thigh and then connect it to a computer and you can leave the rest up to it.

The special software that Yurex uses automatically downloads the data from the device and analyzes the user’s leg-shaking habits and rhythm patterns. The software can also generate a personalized “creative beat pattern” based on leg-shake data obtained while the user is in a state of deep concentration. Then, whenever a boost of creative energy is needed, users can simply jiggle their knees in concert with this beat data to achieve higher brain power.

Featuring a sophisticated black design, with diamond-shaped silver balls located at the top of the sideway spread arms, the device is capable to display 10 digits on its LCD screen. It connects to a PC through an USB cable.

This is practically the first device of its type and a very innovative way to channel your concentration into constructive applications. With the Yurex, you don't have to focus on controlling your legs, but you rather use their restlessness in order to summon your creativity.

Produced in Japan, this device is set to hit the market in the spring of the following year, but there's no word on its pricing yet. If you think this is the perfect device for you, you could contact the manufacturer and try to pre-order it, but you might want to learn some Japanese first.
