This is the world's first smartwatch with accurate blood pressure monitoring
Omron Healthcare showed off an unique wearable that has miniaturized the traditional blood pressure monitoring band to something that you can strap on your wrist and still expect the same level of accuracy.
Just before CES 2018 officially begins, Omron Healthcare showed off an unique wearable that has miniaturized the traditional blood pressure monitoring band to something that you can strap on your wrist and still expect the same level of accuracy. This is Omron’s smartwatch and it offers all of what you need from a modern smartwatch like heart rate monitoring, sleep and activity monitoring and now even blood pressure monitoring!
It’s a bit thick, but considering the accurate measurement recording it boasts and that its battery is rated to last up to 10 days in real-world use, this is completely acceptable for its prospective userbase who might find it a hassle to recharge the device every day.
It’s currently undergoing some certifications, but as soon as that phase is over, it’s slated for a Fall 2018 release. The execs at the booth also shared that it would cost more than a Fitbit Ionic, but less than that of an Apple Watch, so it will be accessible to most people.
