Samsung’s new upgraded BioActive sensor enables more accurate measurements of preventative health and wellness

8 Jul. (Portaltic/EP) –

Samsung has presented its New updated BioActive sensorwhich will integrate into its Upcoming Galaxy Watch smartwatch and will feature more accurate health measurements, in addition to Advanced features for prediction and prevention of well-being, how is he AGE indexwhich allows to identify the biological age of users to help them “make better decisions” to find their healthy well-being.

The Korean technology company has already introduced the BioActive sensor in devices like the Galaxy Watch 4 in 2021 or the recently introduced Galaxy Watch FE, so that users could get health monitoring tools, plus a variety of fitness and wellness features.

Now, the company has noted that continues working to drive innovation in digital healthwith options that allow gathering information and metrics that help users to “get a more complete and optimized wellness experience“.

In this framework, Samsung has presented its New updated BioActive sensorwith which it will facilitate advanced prediction and prevention features for user well-being, and that the company will integrate into its next galaxy watchwhich is scheduled to launch this Wednesday, along with the Galaxy Z series of foldable smartphones.

Specifically, as the company explained in a statement on his blogit is a new sensor that integrates improvements focused on increasing the performance of light-receiving photodiodes, Add more colors of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and distribute them optimally throughout the sensor.

Thus, the company has indicated that Samsung’s team of engineers has managed to Double the performance of each photodiode used in the sensor, reducing the number needed to maintain capacity from eight to four. This freed up space and allowed integrate a greater number and variety of LEDs.

As a result, the new BioActive sensor now integrates Green, red and infrared LEDs, In addition to the specially designed photodiodes, Samsung has said that it has achieved pursue “unexplored aspects of health monitoring in their wearables.”

As you have defined it, it is a Sensor upgrade sets new standards in wearables technologyas it allows for improved accuracy and offers improved performance for many human health parameters.

For example, with the new BioActive sensor, Users will be able to more accurately measure issues such as heart rate, sleep quality, blood pressurethe levels of blood oxygen and stress levels. The company even said it is capable of measuring heart rate with 30 percent greater precision during intensive training, compared to the previous sensor.

AGE INDEX FUNCTION

Following this line, Samsung has also developed that the more diverse colors of the LEDs and the redesigned photodiodes open up new possibilities because allow to better predict trends and take proactive measureswith this, users can work on improved preventive care.

In this sense, the first of the functions that the BioActive sensor will facilitate will be a advanced glycation endproducts (AGE) index. That is, an indicator of metabolic health and biological aging influenced by general lifestyle and eating habits.

Taking this into account, the ‘smartwatch’ will use this index as a biomarker and will provide a snapshot of users’ biological age to help them make “the best decisions” regarding their well-being and their efforts to “work towards a healthier future.”

Samsung has pointed out that the incorporation of the AGEs index is one of the many advanced features planned for the upcoming Galaxy Watch device, which will bring new, “more sophisticated and intelligent” health and wellness tools.

With all this, the new updated BioActive sensor will be included in the upcoming Galaxy Watch smartwatchwhich Samsung is expected to present during its upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event, which will take place this Wednesday, June 10 in Paris (France).
