This Activity Bracelet Is Also Capable Of Measuring Your Blood Sugar Levels

Activity bracelets have become common devices among many users, especially due to their very reasonable price. Of course, most have characteristics that are quite similar to each other, such as a heart rate sensor, monitoring of our physical activity, sleep, and in the less common we have monitoring of menstrual cycles and also of blood oxygen saturation , although the latter functionality is found in somewhat more expensive devices.

But today we look at a bracelet that, in addition to many of these functions, offers something key for diabetics , the ability to measure blood sugar levels.

Hela, a different activity bracelet

With this bracelet we will be able to do everything we would expect from a traditional bracelet, but with a key functionality for many people. Diabetes is a fairly common disease in our society, but fortunately one can live with, although it is not something simple. When we talk about diabetes, controlling blood sugar levels is vital in order to lead a life without complications.

To do this, as you know, a finger prick is usually used to obtain a blood sample to analyze, something that is quite annoying when you have to do it so many times in succession.

The campaign itself for this bracelet on Indiegogo highlights that it is a bracelet that eliminates the traditional pain caused by checking the sugar levels when having to prick the finger.

It is estimated that more than half of people with diabetes get to prick between eight and ten times a day in order to check their blood sugar level. With HELA it is only necessary to moisten the finger with a drop of sweat and lightly press the sensor located on the strap of the bracelet . Thanks to this sensor and the sophisticated algorithms that this bracelet uses, it is possible to reliably measure these levels.

You only have to hold your finger on the sensor for three seconds so that the reading can be done correctly. Once the measurement is made, the bracelet will show us the level with colored icons, if it is correct it will appear green and if the measurement level is high it will show red.

The creators of this bracelet not only emphasize that it is a more comfortable and painless method, but that it is also cheaper in the medium and long term than using specific measurement kits or devices. This bracelet also measures the level of lactic acid, as well as monitors all our physical activity, thanks to the heart rate sensor that it incorporates , among others .

Therefore we have the functionality that we expect from a bracelet and also the measurement of sugar. A bracelet that has its own app, and that we can install on our Android mobile or iPhone to be able to access all the data collected during our activity.

A bracelet that can already be purchased on your Indiegogo page, the Crowdfunding platform where you have already achieved your goal, and has a base price of 193 euros at the exchange rate . Those who buy it now are expected to receive it at home from next November.

Apple Exhibits New Product Tracker for $29 Coin-Sized Item Tracker

Apple has just shown off its newest product line, the name AirTag. This is a coin-sized item tracker that Apple plans to sell for $ 29 in India.

Apple made this AirTag announcement at today’s Spring Loaded 2021 event, amid other announcements regarding Apple TV and the new iPhone 12 color variant.

The Apple AirTag is more of an accessory than a complete product, for someone who wants to have more than just an iPhone or MacBook in the Apple ecosystem.

AirTag lets you track items in Apple’s “Find My” app on iOS. Apple AirTags’ goal is to keep track of everyday items such as keys, wallets, or backpacks, and notify you whenever you are separated from them.

Reporting from The Verge, Wednesday (21/4/2021), the new Apple AirTag itself has an internal speaker, accelerometer, Bluetooth LE, and a user-replaceable battery.

Apple says trackers should last one year of battery life, and you can use an NFC tap to activate lost mode for items you want to track.

According to Apple, each AirTag is equipped with an Apple-designed U1 chip using Ultra-Wideband technology, enabling Precision Search for iPhone 11 and iPhone 12 users.

This allows the user to more accurately determine the distance and direction to the AirTag that is lost while it is in range. As the user moves, Precision Search combines input from the camera, ARKit, accelerometer, and gyroscope and then guides them to AirTag using a combination of sound, haptic, and visual feedback.
