The Japanese inventors presented at one of the recent exhibitions the latest advancement in the field of mobile technology - the "wellness mobile phone", a mobile phone with the functions of a personal trainer and psychologist.
The so-called "good health phone" will count your heart rate, check the freshness of your breath, determine your stress level, and find out how many calories you burned in a day. According to NTT DoCoMo, which presented the new product, the phone is intended primarily for very busy people, but also suitable for athletes and those who want to constantly monitor the state of their body, writes the Membrana.ru edition.
Sensors are built into the screen of a wellness mobile phone, which are capable of taking a lot of biometric parameters. For example, if you enter basic data (your height and weight), turn the phone on its side, and then grab it from both sides (there are electrodes on the sides), then the phone will give you information about the amount of fat in your body. At the top of the mobile phone there is a sensor that can determine the wearer's heart rate by absorbing infrared rays by hemoglobin.
The main advantage of this device is that it is always with you, says a spokesman for NTT DoCoMo.
Are you worried your breath isn't too fresh? Blow into the small hole at the bottom of the phone. Three seconds, and a message like "Not so bad" or "Dangerous to the lives of others" appears on the screen.
The built-in smart pedometer can easily determine if the owner of the phone is walking or relaxing, running or climbing stairs. Based on the data received, the phone more accurately calculates how much energy a person has spent. will count how long your morning run lasted and how long you ran. At this time, you can listen to music through headphones or plan a route for your run on the map. The Wellness Phone will ask questions to determine the host's stress level, and offer advice on how to get out of a dire condition.
