Research & development

Research into heart rate variability synchronisation lies at the heart of our work and our apps. For over a decade we have carried out hundreds of experiments which has led to the creation of a range of innovative technologies.

Our apps measure heart connection in real-time and makes this visible. This provides endless possibilities for engaging people in transformational collective experiences the unite them.   

Connecting pairs

We broke new ground with Heartbond, our smartphone app, which records, analyses and displays the synchronisation of the heart rate patterns of two people in real time. This research app demonstrates the power of heart connection and provides confidence to the user that they can re-establish connection in a relationship if it has been lost. Users report feeling inspired and more empowered when they use the app.

Connecting groups 

Our latest app, the Heartbond Console, allows groups of up to eight users to record, analyse and display their synchronised heart rate patterns in real time. It was originally designed to measure audience engagement and enables groups to review and enhance their connectedness with each other. 
This tool has revealed the complex interplay of synchronisation within groups. We believe that this will significantly change the psychological understanding of group relationship dynamics.
