Workout-Rating Watches

The Garmin Vivosmart HR Activity Tracker Senses More Intense Activity

— October 28, 2015 — Tech
An activity tracker will traditionally judge your workout based on the length of time spent doing it, at what speed and how many calories burned when compared to your body mass; this is a great start, but the Garmin Vivosmart HR Activity Tracker takes things one step further. Featuring a built-in barometric altimeter, the Garmin Vivosmart HR Activity Tracker will take your altitude into account when working out to determine what outside forces you're working against. The heart monitor on the Garmin Vivosmart HR Activity Tracker will also be sure to award extra points if certain workouts raise your BPM more than others for activity tracking that's more precise than ever before.

The Garmin Vivosmart HR Activity Tracker has a display that's always on, making it perfect for quickly checking stats at a glance. On a single charge, the device will operate for up to five days.
Trend Themes
1. Altitude-tracking Activity Trackers - The emergence of activity trackers that take altitude into account during workouts presents an opportunity for companies to create more accurate and personalized fitness tracking experiences.
2. Precise Bpm-based Activity Tracking - Activity trackers that monitor heart rate and award extra points for higher BPM during specific workouts offer an avenue for companies to enhance the precision of activity tracking and provide more tailored fitness insights.
3. Always-on Display Technology - The integration of always-on display technology in fitness trackers allows for quick and convenient access to real-time workout statistics, enabling companies to provide users with instant feedback and motivation.
Industry Implications
1. Fitness Tracking Devices - The altimeter and heart rate monitor features in the Garmin Vivosmart HR Activity Tracker open up opportunities for fitness tracking device companies to further refine their products and offer more comprehensive tracking capabilities.
2. Outdoor Sports and Adventure - The inclusion of altitude-based workout tracking in activity trackers presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for the outdoor sports and adventure industry, allowing companies to create fitness products tailored to outdoor enthusiasts.
3. Technology Wearables - The always-on display technology in the Garmin Vivosmart HR Activity Tracker creates potential for technology wearable companies to develop more user-friendly and accessible fitness tracking devices that provide constant data visibility.
