Cardiologists will certainly scoff, but we have to report about the new Stethee automatic stethoscope the developers of which claim it will be able to warn you of cardiac conditions. It’s still in prototype stage and the team behind the device are raising funds on Kickstarter to push it toward production, but the promise is that anyone will be able to hold the Stethee to their chest and get actionable results within seconds.

The device glows green when it thinks everything is honky-dory, while an orange glow implies that maybe you should get a professional’s look. Interestingly, it also vibrates to the rhythm of the heart, letting you feel the heartbeat as you’re auscultating. Here’s a promo video for the device to help raise Kickstarter funds. Keep in mind the device is not an existing product quite yet, but is in final prototype stages.
