Fancy your blood pressure, electrocardiogram (ECG), temperature, heart rate, blood oxygen level and even lung function taken JUST by holding your phone? Welcome to Wello by Azoi.
We all know the benefits of tracking key health indicators over time. The trend of elevated blood pressure or perhaps even an increase in resting heart rate over time tend to imply something might be amiss and warrants a closer look at our lifestyle with medical professionals. Easier said than done. I use the Withings Pulse to take my resting heart rate but even that i found a tad tedious and tend to pass most days of the week. I also have a blood pressure monitor which i use about once a year to offset the feeling of guilt for my health-induced purchase. It’s tedious to purchase a blood pressure monitor or a pulse oximeter and monitor the readings daily. It’s no wonder most people only know if things have gone wrong during their annual health check ups, if they do get any health checkups at all.
Azoi has come up with an ingenious solution to monitoring your health; the Wello health tracker. The Wello is available as a phone cover for iPhone 4S/5/5s and as a standalone unit for Android 4.3+ smartphones with Bluetooth 4.0. Not every house owns a blood pressure monitor but i’m stating with confidence that most of the time, someone owns a pretty decent smartphone.
In the Wello iPhone sleeve, the sensors are strategically placed so all you have to do is hold your iPhone in your hands for a few seconds and your health indicators are recorded and syncs to your phone. Voila! If you carry your smartphone everywhere you go like the billions of people around the world, you can have your health indicators taken.
Wello health tracker is available at $199 and for a limited time only, the lung tester attachment and delivery are free with pre-orders. Read more here.
