| MZ-Switch .. a new fitness tracker |
MyZone announced an MZ-Switch fitness tracker that is suitable for chest, arms and wrists. It's the world's first device that can monitor PPG (photosynthesis) and EKG (electrocardiogram) readings, the company said. .
The key point here is how you can influence the accuracy of wrist heart rate monitors (i.e. most mobile devices) at grasping objects and thus influence blood flow regardless of your efforts.
According to MyZone, the wrist-based MZ key should maintain 95% accuracy for all activities that are not limited to repetitive movements (such as swimming) and typical activities (such as high-intensity running and stretching).
Tracking technology is standard and has an optical flow sensor that sends LED lights into the skin to measure blood movement in the arm.
This frequency is the heart rate that the blood pumps through the body to determine the user's heart rate.
For exercises with heavy wrist movements such as weightlifting or rowing, the MZ wrench can be attached to the forearm.
The forearm monitor uses an optical blood flow sensor (for example, when wearing the device on the wrist).
The chest can still provide the highest level of safety with an EKG accuracy of 99.4% and the fastest heart rate monitoring response.
The device has 36 hours of built-in memory, it can track exercises outside the cell phone or fitness network and can be connected to Android Wear, Strava, Garmin, MapMyRun and Apple Health.
MZ-Switch is a separate mobile fitness terminal that you can use to track your training.
The company plans to target this new locator with the company's health and education programs and a series of flagship playgrounds.
According to the CEO of MyZone, MZ-Switch wants to increase the appeal of the company's high-resolution fitness tracking. For non-athletes, this approach is very easy to understand.
Since it can only track (without a screen), battery life is unlikely to be an issue.
MyZone estimates that when used to track the chest, it can achieve a battery life of 140 hours on a single charge, while it can last 35 hours when used on the wrist or forearm (using PPG technology).
The MZ-Switch is available to buy direct from MyZone starting today for $ 160.
