NTT DoCoMO Unveils Prototype Phone That Monitors Your Health
Posted October 8th, 2007 by Alex Ion
With so many mobile phones launched each day it’s hard to keep track of them and remember what each of them feature, but that’s not the case with NTT DoCoMo’s (NYSE:DCM) latest phone that is apparently able to monitor your health functions just like a smart treadmill.
The wellness phone could be quite useful because thanks to a motion sensor inside, it knows if you’re resting, running or climbing, can calculate if and how many calories you’ve burnt, takes your pulse and tells your body fat. There are two more things this little gadget could to for you: breath analyzer and stress analyzer. Blow into it and it will tell you a few things about your breathing, or answer a few questions and it will tell you if you’re stressed out or not.
The wellness phone from NTT DoCoMo is still in developing phase because they have a lot of testing to do before they release it to the market and also want to add a few key features like calorie intake and ability to track meals. Sounds like a winner to me because I can’t wait to be more disciplined with eating and sports.
