The device retains a functional digital display with a clock, stopwatch and calendar while adding sensors capable of monitoring heart rate, blood oxygen levels, sleep and body temperature. It also tracks daily step counts and estimates calorie expenditure, expanding the ring beyond timekeeping. The [smart ring watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-two-ring) is scheduled to launch first in China at a price of approximately $294, including local taxes. Casio says the wearable delivers between four and six days of battery life on a single charge. Unlike many smart rings that use a minimalist metal band design, the model preserves the appearance of the company's classic digital watches in a compact wearable format while combining health monitoring with familiar wristwatch functions.
