Monitored debates

An article years ago talked of monitoring the debaters' physiological signs; breath rate, pulse, temp, sweating, eye movement and such and displaying them on a screen with instantly changing dials for all to see.

Kind of a lie detector setup.

It wouldn't be legal evidence but it sure would be interesting.
.
............. Even better:::::::: also put the dials in front of the candidate and watch him/her try to control the readings (s)he does not like at the moment.

THAT would be entertainment!
