On Wednesday Samsung
revealed health-monitoring wearable, announced Samsung's Developer
Conference in San Francisco.
A
thick rubber band connects to a slightly curved touchscreen display.
But
the Simband isn't a smartwatch at all, it isn't even a consumer
device at this point. The Simband is intended to be used by those
within the medical industry — startups and medical researchers
alike — to develop new applications for sensor technology. It's
part of the company's broader shift to move its wearables from
fitness tracking to health monitoring with the goal of enabling
preventive healthcare and wellness.

This
Simband wearable is equipped with six sensors, though its modular
design means developers can add their own proprietary sensors as
well. It comes with can keep tabs on your daily steps, heart rate,
blood pressure, skin temperature, and how much sweat your sweat
glands are producing.
The screen of the
simband displays the time, date and shortcuts to the device's three
main functions: trends, monitor and spot check.
Putting the device
into monitor mode activates all six of the Simband's sensors and
displays a real-time feed of all the stats being collected.
But data means
nothing if you can't understand it and the Simband's software does a
pretty good job at putting the measurements into context. Aside from
the onboard dashboard, this information can also be tracked on the
web when the device has synced over wifi.
