Hunger-O-Meter!

hey all,

i know I'm supposed to have a final concept up, but I've changed directions again and again with this stupid thing, and again I've hit a fork in the road, just after your comments, I've got two basic ideas both involving saliva testing for hormones using a chemical process, As seen above, one is a device that locates it's sensors on a drink bottle, obtaining the saliva from the athlete when they have a drink, and spitting out what hunger level they're at... the other is slightly more devious, some kind of tooth cap, or cover that sits in the athletes mouth and again records the "hunger" levels constantly, and releases perhaps a taste or a signal to the user and effectively remind or inform them that they are in fact hungry!

what i need is a reason to shoot down one and go for gold with the other...

cheers

Dan

hey dan,
i reckon the tooth cap is a better idea, the output itself being taste is different and original i think, leaving professional athletes only to worry about their sport. Plus i think having a device on a drink bottle could be lost easily.
