How about an app that trains you not to touch your face?
Point your phone’s camera or a webcam at yourself while you’re working. The app produces a beep whenever you move your hand near your face.
Technically feasible, I’d say. Someone familiar with iOS/Android computer vision APIs should be able to put it together in a few days.
Kai Faust (not sure if he has an account here) has already developed a prototype desktop application (cross-platform via Electron) for this.
I also posted this on the Coronavirus Open Thread: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/ACyGvQchWzGjGkKgS/coronavirus-open-thread#5PzDF9hZycna4DiHe And Elizabeth points out that there’s a website that does it: https://donottouchyourface.com/ I bet it’ll give me a good startle some time today.
