Expert: Analyze the four trends of fitness wearable technology

2014 is a year of booming wearables. In 2015, we will also see a wave of smarter fitness tracking devices in the field, and sports data tracking and statistics will also be due to the emergence of these devices. Fundamentally changed.

Expert analysis: four major trends in fitness wearable technology

At this year's CES International Consumer Electronics Show, wearables is still one of the main characters in the world. Whether it is smart clothing or smart band-aid, the function of these products shows a trend, that is, the more the physical data they track. The more comprehensive, and more professional, such as breathing rate or metabolic rate. So, what are the future development directions of fitness wearable technology? Kieran Alger, a fitness technology expert at Wareable, a wearable industry site, interprets this.

Trend 1: 7*24 hour heart rate tracking

Representative products: AmpStrip band-aid tracker

Expert analysis: four major trends in fitness wearable technology

Despite the current popularity of fitness tracker products on the market, the band-aid tracker exhibited by the startup AmpStrip at this year's CES is still shining. Users can attach this small, lightweight, waterproof product to their chest to track heart rate, walking steps, sleep quality, body temperature, respiratory rate, posture and other physical signs 24 hours a day. The AmpStrip is about 9cm long, about 2.5cm wide, about 0.6cm thick, and weighs about 11g. It also uses a hypoallergenic medical grade adhesive. This thin design does not feel any discomfort on the user's body.

Functionally, AmpStrip automatically recognizes different motion states, automatically switching between running and swimming, and automatically syncs data to the smartphone. AmpStrip hopes that by knowing the user's heart rate data in real time, it can better understand the state of the heart during exercise and the time of heart rate recovery after exercise, so as to carry out more scientific, effective and healthy exercise. In addition, considering that it has excellent waterproof performance, it should be more suitable for athletes who participate in the triathlon. This product is currently in beta and is expected to go into production this summer.

Kieran Analysis: We haven't evaluated AmpStrip yet, but the product that won the CES 2015 Innovation Awards looks really unique. I will have at least three days of detailed testing in the future. However, it should be pointed out that tracking the heart rate 24 hours a day will become a major trend in fitness wearable technology. After all, heart rate data is very important for users who are sensitive to their health.

AmpStrip is not available yet, but Jawbone's UP3 bracelet and Basis Peak smartwatch are devices that can monitor the wearer's heart rate for 7*24 hours. These devices do not need to be glued to them, so the future market prospects of AmpStrip are not yet available. And know.
