At CES 2020, companies like Withings, Omron, WELT, and many others announced smart wearable tech that can help people live better lives no matter their medical condition. This article examines the potential benefits of these devices and what makes them so special. ..
Withings ScanWatch
The Withings ScanWatch is a medical wearable that measures an astounding range of data, including heart rate, activity, sleeping heart rate, oxygen saturation, altitude, sleep, and more.
The Withings ScanWatch is a device that only requires a charge every 30 days, making it perfect for an elderly parent or someone who is more forgetful.
The ScanWatch is a watch that can track heart rate and provide information about sleep apnea and other health conditions.
The ScanWatch is a wearable that has many health features as well as some smart features. It is more appealing to people who are self-conscious about needing a medical wearable and it has quite a few features that make it worth its price.
The ScanWatch is a wearable that lets you receive text and notifications like any other smart device. This makes it a great choice for people who want to stay connected while on the go.
Omron HeartGuide
The Omron HeartGuide is a smartwatch that uses the same type of technology as your local doctor’s office to measure your blood pressure—an inflatable oscillometric blood pressure cuff. This means the readings it provides are more accurate than all-in-one devices and can provide wearers with data their doctors can use to adjust their medications and make more precise recommendations.
The HeartGuide is a wearable device that monitors blood pressure, pulse, and sleep quality. It also sends notifications to users on the device.
The HeartGuide is a wearable device that helps people take their blood pressure. It requires a lot of power to inflate and deflate the cuff, so users can expect to charge it two to three times per week. The HeartGuide doesn’t automatically inflate; instead, it reminds you when to take your blood pressure so you can get an accurate reading. ..
The Omron HeartGuide is a device that stores up to 100 readings in its onboard memory, but also connects to the HeartAdvisor app for unlimited storage. For individuals with heart disease, consistent blood pressure measurements are important for managing the risk of stroke and heart attack. The Omron HeartGuide makes it easier to do this without setting up the blood pressure cuff each and every time.
WELT Smart Belt Pro
The WELT Smart Belt Pro is a wearable device that analyses the wearer’s walking patterns to detect the risk of falls before they happen. If the risk of a fall is high, the belt will send an alert to the wearer’s phone or watch, prompting them to take action. ..
The Smart Belt Pro provides a gait analysis via the sensors in the belt. It detects when the walking speed grows inconsistent and detects abnormal symmetry in the wearer. The data can be shared through smartphones to help caretakers monitor patients. If the Smart Belt Pro detects an unstable gait and a heightened fall risk, it sends a warning to the user’s phone.
The Smart Belt Pro is a belt that uses sensors to track your movements and keep you safe. It’s made of Italian leather with a silver, automatic buckle, and it can fit into any outfit without looking like a medical device.
eSkin Sleep and Lounge
These “smart pajamas” are perfect for elderly parents who want to stay comfortable and safe while they sleep. The clothing is loose and comfortable, but it also has sensors that can detect falls, monitor overall activity, and track sleep patterns. The Sleep and Lounge eSkin can also differentiate between slipping and falling and tripping and falling. ..
There are two clothing options in this collection: pajamas and loungewear. The loungewear looks more like exercise clothing than pajamas, but are great for everyday wear around the house.
The Sleep and Lounge set has not yet been launched, but interested parties can sign up for more information at xenoma.com.
