Today’s urbanites are pursuing a healthy body, and many people choose to wear smart wearable devices. However, general smart watches and fitness bracelets have their limitations and cannot fully grasp everyone’s physical condition. In recent years, wearing smart rings has become a new trend, and many major technology manufacturers are planning to join the market.Ultrahuman Launch locally first Ring AIR. How is this newly launched Ultrahuman Ring AIR so good at monitoring physical conditions? How is it different from ordinary smart watches? Su Kainan, a real user and long-distance running coach, recently shared his experience of using it.

“Sir Su” Su Kainan is the head coach of NRC Hong Kong. He can be said to be a professional user. He must monitor his health condition daily. In addition, he also needs to integrate his daily training data to maintain a high level of performance. Therefore, he wore a smart ring two or three years ago to monitor his body 24 hours a day.

“Smart watches can monitor general data, but there are many inconveniences in using them. For example, it consumes a lot of power and needs to be recharged frequently. The watch is large and cannot be worn frequently, so the smart ring is indeed a suitable device for monitoring the body around the clock. “

Data and running watch matching

Sir Su not only wears the Ultrahuman Ring AIR smart ring to monitor daily physiological conditions, but also uses a sports watch to obtain data during training. This arrangement can be said to be complementary: Compared with smart watches, smart rings are undoubtedly more lightweight and comfortable, which is conducive to all-weather network monitoring of the body and a more comprehensive understanding of physical conditions.

Even if you take off your watch, you can still rely on the ring on your hand to collect data. Ultrahuman Ring AIR currently supports the world’s most popular health data platforms including Apple Health, Google Fit, MyFitnessPal and multiple smart watches such as Apple Watch, Garmin, Fitbit, and Polar Wait for data to be synchronized to meet the usage habits of different users.

Ultrahuman has designed a dedicated application for Apple Watch users and supports customizing complications on the watch surface, allowing users to quickly view data such as sleep, recovery index, etc.

“Biological clock” controls health status

Ultrahuman Ring AIR’s built-in sensors include: infrared blood pressure sensor (PPG), non-contact medical-grade skin temperature monitor, 6-axis dynamic sensor, and sensors for monitoring heart rate and blood oxygen saturation. Through these multiple sensors, the ring transmits the collected data to the Ultrahuman dedicated mobile application for analysis, summarizing and displaying three sets of data for the user, namely exercise, sleep and recovery index.

Sir Su introduced that the application equipped with Ultrahuman Ring AIR can grasp the user’s comprehensive physical condition and describe the stimuli (such as light, food or exercise) corresponding to changes in the body’s circadian rhythm through the physiological clock phase response curve (PRC). ) complex interactions. The app will even prompt users on what activities they need to do at a certain time, such as going out to bask in the sun, sleep, exercise, etc. In addition, after a game or long class, you can also refer to the suggestions it provides to develop a more effective rest time.

“Not just athletes, as long as you care about your health, you should actually understand your physical condition. The smart ring will remind you to exercise at the appropriate time, or help you improve your sleep quality, helping you improve your health.”

Mr. Su said that the smart ring he was wearing had noticed differences in his health before he was diagnosed with Covid. Although he could not avoid being infected in the end, he could make corresponding arrangements before the diagnosis.

Monitor sleep quality

“The heartbeat, respiration and other data that the watch can monitor are of course very important, but many people ignore another important data, which is the quality of sleep. The smart ring is easy to wear all day long, and it is not uncomfortable to wear it while sleeping. Therefore, The smart ring can collect sleep data and understand the quality of your sleep. “Su Sir will make targeted training plans based on sleep conditions to enhance training efficiency.

In fact, the ring can accurately classify sleep into different stages (awake, REM, light sleep and deep sleep), track heart rate variability (HRV), and monitor skin temperature, allowing users to monitor it through a dedicated mobile app. With the records and scores, you can clearly understand your sleep quality, and it is easier to understand how to arrange rest time.

Under the monitoring of the Ultrahuman Ring AIR smart ring, when the user’s sleep quality is poor, a message will be sent and it will be recommended to meditate, drink coffee, bask in the sun and other activities to improve the physical condition.

Caffeine intake tips

“Caffeine is helpful for long-distance running and endurance sports. I also have the habit of drinking coffee, and drinking coffee is also good for fat loss, but drinking too much coffee will affect sleep.”

Sir Su said that after using Ultrahuman Ring AIR, he can better control the timing of caffeine intake. The reason is that Ultrahuman Ring AIR can analyze the user’s caffeine consumption and provide personalized suggestions, suggesting the best drinking time without affecting the body’s balance, thereby avoiding disturbing normal sleep.

Non-inductive design with high reliability
