I guess it could be a very course analog for "Feeling" in any direction. You could make guesses on what exactly that feeling is based on some context.

At any rate, getting an add that said "Always running late? Try Uber!" after running for a bus would be super creepy, I don't want any of that.

Or worse:

“We noticed your heart rate was only elevated for a couple of minutes in bed last night, need help lasting longer in bed?”

Or

“We noticed the same heart signature while you were away from your wife’s location, need a divorce lawyer?”
