How Does a Smartwatch Know When You're Stressed?

Imagine your smartwatch is like a detective watching you closely. It listens to how fast your heart beats and how evenly it goes up and down. When you're stressed, your heart works harder, and the watch notices these changes, just like a detective sees clues at a crime scene. That’s how it knows when you're feeling tense or worried.
