TickleFoot is a Foot-Tickling Machine That Discovered the Most Ticklish Spot on the Human Foot

Science and technology allow the innovation of the most useful, and also the oddest gadgets. One such machine is called the “TickleFoot”, and is a foot-tickling machine

With the use of magnet-driven brushes, researchers found the most ticklish locations of the feet of 13 participants. The data that was gathered was used to create an insole with tickling actuators that hit the average highest-scoring spots on their feet. This machine could serve as a stress reliever by inducing uncontrollable laughter. Science has shown that laughter decreases stress hormones and also triggers endorphins. These chemicals are known as "feel-good hormones."
