Samsung will unveil several new products, including the Galaxy Watch 7, and there are rumours of the Galaxy Watch Ultra as well, at the Galaxy Unpacked 2024, set for July 10th. However, before the official announcement, Samsung has detailed some health sensor upgrades to the upcoming Galaxy Watch. Take a look at what the company says about the upcoming Galaxy Watch.
Samsung health sensor upgrades
- Samsung notes that the Galaxy Watch will feature an updated BioActive Sensor that offers advanced predictive and preventative wellness features.
- The new BioActive Sensor on the yet-to-be-launched Galaxy Watch will also provide more accurate health measurements compared to the Galaxy Watch 6.
- The tech giant mentions the new sensor comes with three upgrades – enhancing light-receiving photodiodes, adding more colours of LEDs, and optimising their arrangement.
- The sensor has been redesigned, which has created additional space for more LEDs and various types, which are now optimally placed across the sensor for better performance.
- With this, the updated sensor now includes Yellow, Blue, Violet, and Ultraviolet LEDs and an increased number of Red, Green, and Infrared LEDs.
- Samsung states the allocation of Green, Red, and Infrared LEDs will enhance performance and accuracy in wearable technology.
- Additionally, it will allow the updated BioActive Sensor to measure health metrics like heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen levels, and sleep quality levels more accurately.
- Furthermore, the heart rate monitoring during intensive workouts will likely be 30 percent more accurate compared to the predecessor.
- As per Samsung, the advanced glycation end products (AGEs) index will be introduced as an indicator of metabolic health and biological ageing.
- There will be more features to it, but the company will likely reveal more about them at the event set for tomorrow.
