The sensitive PC is a research project intended to improve interaction between man and machine, and to see if computers can be made to respond to what their users feel.
Dr Jörg Voskamp, from Germany's Fraunhofer Institute, which runs the project, says: "People can see my emotions, and more or less see that I have feelings, but the computer can't, so we think there's a lack in the communication.
"We thought that it might be a good idea to bring the computer up to speed in this way."
The system consists of sensors in a glove. They measure your temperature, skin conductivity (if you are in a sweat), while a belt takes your pulse.
