Lifestyle-Motivating Wristbands

This Health-Monitoring Wristband Helps You Meet Your Goals

— June 1, 2013 — Tech
This health-monitoring wristband will be a constant reminder to strive to live a healthier lifestyle. The W/Me wristband informs you of your physical and mental condition using a medical sensor. It then connects to a smartphone app that indicates your personal track. The app also walks you through rhythmic breathing with a friendly and colorful coach on screen.

California-based digital product company Phyode collaborated with medical professionals to create this ergonomically designed health tool. Instead of monitoring individual items such as heart rate or blood pressure, this product checks your body system as a whole. After finding out that rhythmic breathing can influence one's overall condition, Phyode developed this wristband and app duo to encourage you to progressively integrate rhythmic breathing for a healthier lifestyle.
